Just got back to my car and there is a small scratch on the drivers side door. It not big or deep, I don't think it was done intentionally but it still bad enough to notice. What's my best bet to sort it out without getting the door sprayed. Any suggestions on the best scratch remover or some other filler product to use. It's a silver car by the way, Not sure if that makes any difference?
Any suggestions welcome Thanks in advance.

Has it gone through the paint? Try some polish on it first

Yes it has but only barely in one part roughly, a 3 inch section of the scratch The rest it hasn't I'd say the scratch is about 8 inch long in total. Do you think polish will fill it or will I need something else?

Try polish 1st. if it doesn't work try Tcut. If still a no go then a Chip and scratch man can just repaint it. The whole door panel doesn't need repainting.
