Howdy all.
Last time I washed the car I saw what I thought was a piece of a fir needle on the rear valance. Upon closer inspection it looks like an actual scratch that goes all the way down to the base material, but it's only about 3/8" long, 1/16" wide, and very distinct (see pic - please forgive dirty car). I have no idea how the hell this odd-ball scratch materialized, but of course with grabber blue everything stands out like a sore thumb.
So the question is - how do I fix it? I have a touch-up pen from the dealership (motorcraft) complete with the full process of roughing up the surface, etc. etc. that I bought from the parts counter. I also have a kit from Dr. ColorChip for dealing with rock chips. The problem is it's on the edge of the valance where it curves outward. It's really an odd place. Any suggestions? Pen, rock chip kit, or...?
