Scratches and paint issues

Black TSX 14.
Have a bunch of small (mostly) clear coat scratches especially on doors. Tried to a remove a few with Ultimate Compound but no luck. Perhaps I did it wrong.
Question: Will any of the detailing / paint correction places be able to fix those at a reasonable price? Or should I try myself with another wax?

Also the paint chipped on the edge of doors very visible white lines. That will need to be repainted. Can I just use the paint pen on there?

without actually seeing the damage, no one will be able to tell you.

if the scratches are in the clear coat, maybe a detailing place can get them out with machine and polish...you will not be able to get them out by hand.
if they are deep in the clear coat, maybe one needs to wet sand to get them out.

one needs to visit some detailing shops and then some body shops to get quotes and course of action.
