    Hello. On my Prius V 2014 i started to see small scratches around the handle on the inside of the car. Seems like small nail scratch barely touching produces scratches.

    Any idea how to repair this? I mean like very high wet sandpaper? I am clueless. Any tips would be appreciated. 20190615_200100.jpg

    That’s the texture of the panel. The scratches hit the high points. Sanding will cause more widespread and visible damage. I would ignore them.
