I was pulling my 535 out the garage, and just went a little to far back before I switched into D and might a tight turn to go down my driveway, when I backed into my old car parked perpendicular to it. Really dumb thing, I know, I gotta move it. I used some of that GS27 stuff and it actually seemed to make the worst of it go away. Now when you look, you only see three or for tiny scratches as compared to the full fledge scuff mark from before. My question is, how long will this GS stuff last and should I tell my dealer? Ironically, I had an appointment tomorrow morning to get some Safe Guard, I think it's called, applied to the exterior of the car to prevent stone chips and whatnot. I also have the 5 year dent warranty, but there is no dent. Anything I can ask them to do for me seeing as I just got the car 3 weeks ago?

Sorry to hear. Hope you get things sorted. Maybe a little rubbing compound before the dealer applies Safe Guards, maybe it'll seal in the rubbing compound. GL

PDC would have done the job. Thats why I can't understand why so many people are againest that option', IMO its a good investment.
cheers
