Re: Alfa 147 bumper scratches
With past experience of doing something similar to a Marea I found that superficial damage can be polished out with cutting compound eg Farecla, deeper scratches must be carefully rubbed down, filled with finishing stopper sanded again, primed and topcoated with matching base coat and finally lacquered for a perfect finish.
Good luck
