I have just noticed a scratch on the glovebox exterior area... glovebox is made out of black plastic so it sticks out ... and I'm freaking because I keep the car really clean and the dash and glovebox area is just perfect otherwise... it's pretty long, 1 1/2 to 2 inches and deep (can definately feel it) . Anyone got any advice or experience on how to remove it? So far I've put some 303 Aerospace protectant on to make it stand out less.. but still I can see it and its driving me nuts!
Any product I can buy to fill it in, smooth it over?

I got a couple scratches on my door panel. It's black so what i did was use some shoe polish on it(powder kind.)

You can actually buy these pens from detailing shops that are for that purpose. They are kinda like those china markers, but made specifically for interiors and come in a variety of colors.. handy to keep in your glove box!

You can use dies to cover it up. but in order to fix it you gotta use a filler and retexture the area.. I would do it for ya, but i am just so busy at work that i dont have the time. Call fibernew
