Default Help - novice with this stuff, need some advice as to how best to

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/65805/img_4454.jpg"></center><p>try to remove the scratch above. Some a$$hole at a supermarket decided that my car would be a good resting spot for his cart. I have an orbital polisher, various pads, but what should I use to try to remove it? Before you say "touch-up paint", I don't have any and can't get it; Audi doesn't have it for this color. (I tried a touch-up paint company's product, but the match was very poor.) So what do I do, people? TIA. PS - the upper line is just the clear bra.

Default I would try Menzerna IP with a yellow pad (you can try a white first)

but dont expect miracles. I'm sure after a few passes it will be less noticeable.

I'll pick your car up and fix that.
