So, I used the Scratch X to buff out the scratch. Then decided to put some touch up paint on the scratch which was the one i purchased from the dealer. I then used a dupli color aerosol clear coat which I did not use a template.

I then wetsanded the scratch with 3000 grit paper on the scratch then used a polish and scratch x after it.

I noticed the weird clear coat haze/rough area so i decided to go ahead and lightly sand those areas. And did the polish and scratch x after that.

you need to hit the hazed area with a finer polish, it will slowly restore it back to its shine. what polish did you use?

Thanks for the help everyone.

I got the swirls out by wet sanding the area again, rubbing compound, and several different polishes and I got it out. It took a lot of elbow grease but it turned out fine.
