Minor scuff on ABP TL-S side skirt

ok guys....I need help on how to fix this minor scuff or scratch on the passenger side body kit.

I think it was caused by my co worker who scuffed the side skirt with his runners while getting into my car in a hurry.

Anyways... the scratches are thin and not very deep, but I know that its past the clear coat and possibly into getting close to the primer b/c i can feel that its not so smooth even after a wax.

I tried to handwax it off with some Auto Glym white wax, but there are still visible thin white streaks of scuff marks. The white scuff marks is probably the primer, but not 100% just yet.

Its not really noticeable except myself, but I'm a little anal about my paint.
I heard people suggesting to use SCRATCH X, but I know that it will only cure the problem temporarily.

I wish they made a Wax that would fill in the scratch and dry up completely like a permanent paint.

I know Its gonna be hard to suggest me anything at the moment b/c i don't have pics up yet. I'll try to get a few pics a day or 2.

anyways, please let me know what are a few things i should look into. thanks

Try the Scratch-X first and if that doesn't satisfy you, you may wanna check out this thread. Your other option would be the local P&B shop if it's too deep.
