scratches on car, how to remove?

[heyyo]

i have scratched the door handle of my car against a pole...is there anyway i can remove the scratches cheaply?

Depends upon what the handle is made of and if it has a paint or chrome finish. Can you be a little more specific?

If the scratches are not too deep, I.e. right down to the primer I have (myself) used a black indelible marker pen to touch up scratches. The beauty of this is that you can (with a steady hand and a fine tip) actually touch up each scratch individually. Not the most professional job in the world (I'll grant you) but it's definitely cheap and (in some cases) quite effective. :D

When you are satisfied that it looks better than it did. Apply some clear lacquer to finish the job off.

Good luck and Si thee

If the scratches aren't too deep then some T-Cut can have impressive results. Just put some on a cloth, rub it in and polish it off - you can often get rid of minor scratches completely like this.
