Hi,

If the mark is superficial and hasn't damaged the paint under it, go to the local parts store and purchase polishing compound.

When you do this, get a soft applicator and dampen it. Then put the compound on the applicator and rub where the mark is located.

Let me know if that helps.

Take care,

Joe
