Not really. The warranty doesn't cover scratched paint. Once the papers were signed the car is yours and any non warranty issues it has are also yours even if you haven't even left the lot with it.
The best way to deal with it would have been to inspect the car thoroughly before signing and include any minor repairs there could be in the sales agreement.
In this case the dealer did the work on goodwill and was under zero incentives or requirements to do a thing.
