okay..
so im thinking i should get a tooth pick and dip it in touch up paint and fill in the scratches..
wait for it to dry...
wash the area and dry... and then put compound on it and buff it out?
how will i know when to stop buffing?

that sucks. 
what color is it and is the scratch down to the primer? if it's deep you can always use touch up paint, wetsand, buff it and hopefully it will blend right it. it's a lot of work and probably an experienced detailer would be able to do it, but chances are at that price, you're probably better off getting the door repainted....

^That Scratch Wizard guy is a joke. All he can do is surface scratches and things light like road rash. If the scratch is down to the primer or metal then he is useless.
I say, watersanding may help or just get the whole door repainted. And pictures will certainly help us to help you.

ok i kno this thread is old but i kno someone at a body shop who is kinda pricey but he will make it look like brand new n u won't even tell the difference in the color. If interested e-mail me at hammad_qazi@hotmail.com If the car is painted or touched up already than do not reply to my post. EZ

How much are you willing to spend? You can probably get it done for a couple hundred bucks...It's not cheap, but to get the job done properly, its probably your best bet.
Sucks that people can't respect others' property, thats a ******** move by them...
If you're looking for a quick fix just to hide it..I'd suggest touching it up and wetsanding. I do detailing on the side and can help you if you want...

I finally got off my lazy *** and ran some touchup paint on it.. it looks 10 times better but still i can see it on a angle...
should i wet sand it and use some rubbing compound and buff it?..
how's turtle wax rubbing compound and this buffer?
