Old man bumped door frame onto mirror

I watched it happen, he parked too close and slowly super slow mo-ly opened his door gently touching the plastic part of the mirror and a white scuff occured.how i can i get rid of it? i rubbed it vigorously with paper towel and water, most of is gone but will it always stay there or do i have a chance or removing it completely?

A clay bar should do the trick and won't damage your clear coat.

[/rant on] Don't ya just love lazy old people? Like it's too much trouble to back their car up and park in the middle of the space. But it's not too much trouble to "gently" hit your car with their car door. Learn to drive or take the bus, for Christsakes. Or better yet, they should just check themselves into an old folks home and save their relatives the trouble. Don't get me started about the morbidly obese people who have to shoehorn their car into a compact parking space near the Walmart entrance, then open their door into the car next to them so they can back their three foot wide butt out of the car. [/rant off]

Never forget the time I watched an old lady backing her oversized car out of a space until it hit the car in the row behind her, then pulled forward until it hit the car in front.

She did this 4 TIMES, never once looking in the mirror, just slowly went back until she felt the bump. Eventually got out of the spot and drove away. It was amazing!
