Burnt Paint!!

I feel stupid bout this....but here it goes....

Was buffin out a scratch on my 04 lariat, above the taillight...scratch was comin out good....and my son yelled at me to look at him.

Needless to say i didnt pay attention for a few secs, and now ive burnt the paint (i think).

Its a spot bout the size of a quarter, is white, and my truck is black....

Any way of fixing this short of a body shop?

Please help!!!

thanks,

Humm!! first if the buffing is deep you will need to add some light body putty sand with hand in a movement of circle with 600 grit with water until surface is equal and smooth apply primer but use a piece of carboard with a hole 1 inches larger then you surface apply primer trhought this hole but dont let the carboard stands on the car let it stands 1/2 inch so the paiunt wont mark do the same thing with the top coat again to avoid fumes .

Without looking at the problem, my best guess is that you cut all the way through the color coat, into the primer. If that is the case, nothing but a repaint will fix it.
