Once the resin has cured (about 2 hours)begin to sand off resin with 2000, once you feel that most of the resin has been leveled begin to buff using a wool disk and compound (rotary buffer with light speed and pressure). Once all sanding marks have been knocked, use a dual action along the whole hood with a choice of polish, then clean thoroughly. Lastly wax and watch it look like new. That's my input, wish I could make a video for a more detailed process.

This, except use clear coat instead of resin. You can use a plastic toothpick or something similar to get the clear coat into the scratch.
