Default oh man! got millions of scratch!

so this is the story.
i parked my car in the parking garage in NYC, kinda worried even though i parked my Jetta there over 2 yrs now.
and...after work, i went there to pick up my car, and inspected to check if there were any scratches on.
as usual there were no scratches but i found 2 drops of some dirty grease/oil on my rear bumper, so i asked for tissue to clean it up.
when i went over the oil with tissue ( in fact tissue isn't one of those scotties or those good ones but paper tissue), it made millions of line of scratch around it, so i thought it was some sort of grease that wasn't cleaned up, so i went over it and, this time swirling it, and again, it repeated samething, leaving me with tons of hair line scratches. at that moment i realized particles in dirty oil were scratching paint on the bumper. and of course, parking assistant were telling me he can't even see the scratch, so i just came out.

Anyways, what do you guys think caused this? i have 2 coats of Zaino on my car, so i was thinking if it was scraping off the zaino coat rather the real coat of paint.
I cleaned it with Dawn as soon as i got home to clean off the zaino coat to see if i was correct, but i don know yet, since it was little dark to see the scratches, im really worried about it.

What do you guys think? and if it is the scratch, what is the best way to take it out or buff it out?? help please! my car is only 2 weeks old!

First make sure the area is completely clean. Next get a scratch remover, Mothers and McGuires make good ones, and buff out the area. If the scratches are just fine hair line scratches this should take them out and then you can reapply the Zanio.

Dude I know you just got the car and want it to be perfect but in 2 months the almost invisible scratches that you are not even sure are in the clear coat let alone the paint really wont matter. Chill out and enjoy the car.

i'm thinking... get over it. scratches are prone to happen. If you are worried about getting scratches, then get a clear bra. ya babo ya, dont worry about it too much.. just zaino it again and again.. that should take care of it a bit

what dont you understand? I'll break it down for you in laymans terms, its just a car. Cars are prone to get scratched. If you dont want to get anymore scratches than get a clear bra. You are an idiot. If you want some of the scratches to disappear than try to zaino your car a few times.

Dude I think your browser displayed question marks because he was typing in a different language. What browser are you using?
