Paint chip down to bare metal :(

Hello everyone,
About a month ago this happened.
Now I finally have the time to put in to fixing it. Although, I have some questions and need some help/advice/recommendations on products necessary to make this chip look as good as possible. I'd prefer not to have to take it to a body shop unless that would actually be cheaper. What steps would i have to take to ensure that it comes out as nicely as possible? As of now i have a cheap orbital polisher from pepboys not sure if that'll be enough to do the job. I plan on taking care of this, then compound and polish the whole car. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
