Default Deep scratches in bumper cover :(

Yea I F#$%ed up and scraped my LR corner of the plastic bumper cover pretty good. While most of the discoloration (due to the material scraped) came off with claybar but the actual scratches are now left. Think I'm gonna have to take it to a paint shop? What else might I try? I've got an orbital if there is something which might be able to help. TIA.

Default Actual paint removal depending on degree can

only be fixed by adding paint or removing neighboring paint usually by using a buffer. Both of these I use a body shop.

However, I am waiting a while as others will probably come and so I will take care of it later.
