Anyone out there know how to remedy hairline type scratches on a black NSX? Our cat likes sitting on the black car because of the sun and warmth?

How do I get rid of these type scratches without haveing the car repainted?

Thank You,

Strato
 
Have the cat's legs amputated.

Then try something like Meguire's scrath-x swirl remover followed by wax.
 
Rule of thumb - if you can feel the scratch by gently running your nail over it, you cannot buff it out.

If you cannot feel it, swirl remover should do the job, but from what I've seen with cat scratches on other cars, it's not going to come out with simple buffing.

My neighbors cat is close to having this done.

Kill the cat.

When I was in college, there was a cat that used to piss on the wheels of my first decent car ever (old 911) every night. Cat piss and alloy wheels don't mix. A car battery, several square feet of metal screen and a couple of hefty cables cured the little beast of that habit. I hope he went to his grave with a mortal fear of alloy wheels.

Hey, don't do that! I love cats! Just don't park your NSX anywhere that cats may roam. There are adhesive covers you can get to cover cat's claws that will reduce their ability to scratch...but I still wouldn't want them walking all over the car.

My cats aren't allowed in my garage. And, whenever I visit my mom's cat friendly neighborhood, I always park my NSX in her garage.
