Question How can I hide a scratch in plastic?

Somehow I have managed to place a scratch in the grey, metallic like, plastic seat backing of one of my adaptive sport seats. The scratch is not very deep but appears as a thin, near vertically running, straight, white line about three inches long just below the coat hanger.

Does anyone have any helpful suggestions as to how I might camouflage this?

If I recall correctly, that is Volcano Gray paint. Contact Eric at BUmperPlugs.com. Maybe he can help.

Unfortunately the Volcano Grey plastic does not match up to any particular finish. But a local leather repair specialist should be able to fix small scratches in the plastic....

Go to a Novus store. They have different polishes for scratches in plastic. Don't know if it will work, but it might be worth a try.
