Cat scratch fever on magno paint
Well, sort of. In this case it was a dog.
We were house sitting a friends dog for a week and when I came home today she jumped up on the driver's door and put some light scratches on it.
My dog is trained not to jump up on our cars, so I'm not used to worrying about that when the dog is out when I come home. The dog we are sitting is a very nice dog and while I was pretty ticked off, I'm not mad at her, but was pretty darn frustrated with the situation at the time.
I wiped down the side of the car and cleaned off her paw prints and gave the area a light rub with a damp microfiber towel, but there are still some light scratches there that you can see in the right light.
Any ideas? I don't think you can "buff it out" on magno finishes.

Our dog is a mini-Aussie. Very energetic and loves to chase frisbees or fetch rocks, finds the right rock even at night. Could give a flip about ***** though, not sure what's up with that. He's pretty smart and all I did was sharply say "down" a couple of times when he would jump up on my jeep when I came home. Not worried about that vehicle much as I've put plenty of desert pin striping on it myself, so a couple of dog scratches won't even be noticed. But he got the hint pretty quickly.
