scratch temp fix?

[Hyperion]

Hi Guys
I scratched my car this morning, the problem is i will not be able to take it to the panel beater soon, its looks like quite a deep scratch because i can see the silver metal at the bottom.
My question, can i put anything on the scratch to protect the metal until i can get it fixed. I was thinking of dropping some wax on it, to like seal it up.
Anyone got a better idea.
Thanks
PS: if you wanna see the scratch I posted a pic of it in the Photo section.

wax will be a pain to get off again.
I would use grease. (the clear LM2 stuff) wont wash off with water, but will with degreaser.

or you could try cellotape just to stop the air getting at the metal.

if ure gonna have the panel sorted profesh, u might as well use a touch up stick and when it gets done propper it wont cause any probs
