So a guy work with drops 35k on a new harley trike and gets this hideous scratch the 1st day he has it. He asks me if I can get it out so I have him bring it over. I didn't wetsand cause I want to go least aggressive first. I used lc yellow with 105 and then white lc with 205. You'll have to excuse the pics (my wife took them) but it did a pretty good job. The angle if the 2nd pic isn't the same as the 1st but you can get the idea..

Can you get your finger nail in the scratch? If you can it will need to be repainted or touched up.

A little bit but I already polished it..it worked good considering no wet sanding was done.

Wet sanding may help but if you aren't well practiced in it then don't even think about it. And a bad touch up that paint would be as evident as the scratch itself.
