Scaatches in wood wheel

I purchased an Acura oem wood steering wheel for my rl on ebay.
The guy who sold it neglected to mention that the wheel had 3 scratches on it some quite deep, any sugestions on how to minimize the appearance of the scratches in the clearcoat finish.
Thanks

If the scratches are just on the clear try going to your local autozone or something and buy a paint pen filled with clear and fill the scratches in. If you want perfection then wetsand the ridges down and buff out the wet sanding marks.

Man I'd be pissed for one......But as Conan stated, fill or lessen the edges on the scratches....About all you can really do.....
