I noticed my car had been keyed this morning. How should I go about fixing it? (lemmy.ml)

I'm pretty sure this happened away from home and I'm just now noticing. The scratch is really deep hitting the metal in the deepest part. I have full coverage but I'm worried a claim will raise my insurance too much to be worth it. I've wrenched on cars before but never painted anything because it scares me.

Is it time to start watching chrisfix videos or should i just deal with insurance?

Oh yeah, sorry missed that.

In that case, as Gellis12 said, professional paint job is your only option (to match the original paint).

You can make it a little bit less visible, but a lot of those "quick, easy and DIY" solutions will actually make it look worse.
