Repair Door Panel Scratch

[Surfbear]

I have a scratch on my recently purchased 2017 CX5's inside door panel.

Any suggestions for best repair methods?

Heat can re-form thermoplastic.

Hi everyone, i bought Cx5 2019 and i have noticed this glossy part of normaly matt door panel. It is not really noticeable but under some certain light there is difference as you can see on the photo.

I think thats from previous owner while resting his elbow and this matt finish has gone. I tried with soap and water, leather cleaner but nothing seems to help.

Are there any more options to restore it back to like it was? Thanks to all

Yes, looks like the previous owner has worn down that part of the panel. You can try applying a "dressing" to the panel to try and blend it in, something like Aerospace 303 Protectant, but it may only hide it slightly.

Yeah, I think you're out of luck unless you a) replace the panel, or b) paint the whole panel/area.
