are you sure it can be buffed out?
if the scratch is too deep, there's always filling the scratch with touchup paint with a toothpick gradually over time (fill, wait for it to dry, fill, wait for it to dry...) and then wetsand/buff it until it's flat with the rest of the paint... but i'm not sure if this method works all the time/comes out perfectly.

...otherwise it's repaint.

Damn that sucks. Why haters gotta do that. I used to have a veilside style (pic below) wing on my high school Accord (LOL this back in the late 90's). Some d**k karate chopped the wing in half when I parked it at school.




Anyways, if the scratch is deep key scratch, fill it with a tooth pic and touch-up paint. Let it dry overnight, then buff that area smooth with rubbing compound and clean off. Finally polish that area till shiny. I just used this technique on paint chips on my gf's car, and it came out great. Too bad dont work too well on IP.
