Just trying to gauge how deep and if it is through the clearcoat. If you can hook your nail, it sounds rather deep. Most likely hand removal will not be easy, or possible; most likely you will have to wet sand with 2000 wet sandpaper, then coumpound with a machine.

If you haven't done this before, dig deep on this board and you will find many pages on how to do this. If you think you may want to make a $200 investment, you can buy your own tools and supplies (Orbital Polisher, compounds, etc) and then go at it.

If not, pay someone that is experienced. Inexperience can be costly...
