| I got my the side of my olds keyed a while back and i am sick of looking at it since it goes all the way down the side of my car. Can i get it repainted and will it be close to the color i have now? |

| Maybe you should try some compound? ( I havent used it but the guy nextdoor does). |

| Compound takes the paint around the scratch and makes it almost wet again so that you can spred it a little into the scratch. Im sure that another member could explain it better. |

| my white buick was shot up with bb guns along the side.. i went to autozone (walmart has a small selection also) and they have touch up paint like fingernail polish, and you can match the color pretty easily |
