Not very happy morning today. I get my car out of stable and notice some marks on the hood. A damn cat or something has stepped on it!
This must be happened yesterday when I was at work, because I put the car straight in the stable when I came home.
Looks like it didn't get very good grip because long scratches along the paint towards ground! Damn!

Sorry to hear
Hopefully you can get rid of them with a cleaner.

That sucks. I was on the road in southern Germany and stayed the night. When I got in the car the next morning in the hotel garage, I had dirty cat paw prints all over my car. I checked for scratches - I was lucky, there weren't any.
Are they light enough to buff out?

Now after investigating the case I concluded that it might have been a magpie on the hood. I still hate cats anyways.
I also noticed there are much more scratches than I saw before.
I can't feel the scratches with my fingernail, so I hope I can buff them out in the next detail.

I meant a garage.
