Well those scratches are pretty deep , even removing paint. there are scratch removers that may remove some but not all scratches. For the deep stuff ,there are paint pens that will fill the scratches,but at certain angles will show up as a not so good touchup job.

You might take a look at what Consumer Reports here in the US likes,they have YouTube videos about their application.

They said that Quixx paint scratch remover worked the best in their tests.

I also looked at youtube videos using WD-40 ,3000-5000 grit sandpaper/swirl-scratch polish and toothpaste--results questionable for WD-40,the toothpaste looked promising! The sandpaper/polish looked pretty good.

I suspect if you can't live with the results you get, a body shop is the only option left.

Above 20 mph it's hard to tell a touchup and at 60 mph it's invisIble !!!

Best of luck to you and Happy New Year to you and yours !!!
