Angry Scratches on Bonnet

Aaaaagggghhhh!!

Just went to show my mate my three week old lovely black Furby vRS and he found three faint scratches on the bonnet. None of them are more than two inches long.

Will a simple t-cut sort it?

TIA

Ade

If they are faint yes, T cut will cure it but it is a bit harsh on black so try ordinary wax polish and lots of elbow grease first!! Jim (paint sprayer newbie)
