When I was washing this evening I noticed a hair like substance on my rear side passenger bumper close to the tire. I immediately realized it was a deep scratch. It looks like a knife/key 2" cut (becoz the surrounding area has no effect of a car hit). I tried to apply a polish and wax to buff up..but no response. The scratch is too deep , u can see the black line under the paint and the area is very rough.

It must have happened between today and last last time I washed.

Why would people do such things????
Plus they did where I could not see.

Please help me....what are my options?????????????

If i find the asshole I will make sure he/she has to visit the hospital ...coz my foot will be in his/her ass.

What color is your TSX? If it's white.. it's a very forgiving color when it comes to color matching and touchups.

First, you wash that section (if you are too lazy to wash the whole car). Then, get rid of any loose bits of paint and clean up with a MF cloth that is damped slightly with denatured alcohol (methylated spirits will work too). Apply touch up paint to the area using a sharp toothpick, one thin layer at a time, leaving 30minutes between layers (for Acura brand touch up paint). Once you build above the scratch level, you leave it for 7 days.

Come back after 7 days, wash the area, and dry. Apply Langka using their instructions to flatten the paint. Then apply non-abrasive polish and then your wax. The alternative if you don't have Langka is wetsanding. I don't dare to take sandpaper to my car, no matter how wet it is.
