In theory, [some kind of metal filler](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/metal-filler/45092) could work… Most times for dings and scratches what I see recommended is rubbing or sanding it down to smooth it out with a metal spoon, denim, things like that. It is easier to smooth around the scratch or ding than it is to glue extra material on to cover it up. I guess with cars this is somewhat easier since you fill a dent with filler material, then that always gets covered with primer and paint. Metal anodization on yoyos is a whole different ballgame! --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/removing-scuff-marks/24488)._
