Default scratch removal

so some little ****** has decided to run something all down the side of my bm. from quater panel to wing.
fortunately it hasnt broke the paint but its damaged the lacquer.
ive rubbed it with some t cut and its a lot better. you have to look to see it but how do you know when you are rubbing too much lacquer away and approaching the paint? ive seen the damage t cut can do!
im not sure if i should live with it (annoying) or have another go.
any advise welcome.

See if you can get somebody on the job with a machine polisher. There are many better products than T-Cut but all are best applied with either a DA or Rotary Polisher. In the right hands your paint will be perfectly safe too.
