So yes - if it's just the other car's paint that is on your car, you can get it buffed out. I'm speaking from prior experience. I've also hit a yellow pole, where the pole's paint got onto my bumper and it was easily buffed (polished) out.

Where can you buy chrome color paint?
At some paint and art stores, I believe Krylon makes one.
Krylon® Products were introduced in 1947 making Krylon, Inc. the first and still largest supplier of aerosol paints in the world. In the late 1940's, DuPont Corporation developed the first aerosol package, which combined gas and liquids in a formula that could be sprayed from a single can.
Howard E. Kester creatively devised a way to blend his coating products into an aerosol, which had many advantages over the brush-on method. Shortly after Kester brought his idea to market, DuPont introduced Nylon. Kester was so impressed with this development that he dropped the first "n" from nylon, added the first and last letters of his own last name, and the Krylon moniker was born!
In the early fifties, color was added to the coatings and sales grew quickly with endless boundaries. Today, Krylon is known for its commitment as an industry leader in product innovation, package design, project inspiration and color. Their range of products expands beyond the home and into your backyard with multi-purpose, plastic, specialty, rust preventative, brush-on and craft products.
Krylon Paints are available at stores like Sherwin Williams, Home Depot and available on line at discount prices at www.BigPaintStore.com.
