If it's on your dash and not your vent piece then may I suggest applying some heat to it via a heat gun or hair dryer and then rub it down. Unfortunately, it's not going to completely get rid of it but it will reduce it a good bit making it less noticeable. Hopefully in time, you'll forget it was even there.

Good luck.

I have a heat gun but, I don't know what paint or what protectant to use

it with because, the dash was very nice and shiny but, the scratches are not

that deep it's in dark gray lines. Is there any Maguiars or some kind of a

special spray paint avaliable like the dupi color paint with the heat gun.
