Did you hand buff with scratch x or use a polisher?

You may have to use another application of scratch x if its only a shallow line left or polisher will do a much better job if its still quite deep but be careful you don't go all the way through your clearcoat

If it hasnt reached the metal theres no need to worry as it will come out, just be patient and take your time. You have to get the clear coat surrounding the scratch at a similar depth to the scratch to fully get rid of it

Alternatively use a polish / wax with a filler to imrpove the appearence but the downside is that these wash out at various time intervals and you'll have to reapply it

OR just take it to a detailing shop and they'll get it done for you, it'll cost more but you know the jobs getting done properly
