Default How to remove deep clear coat scratch?

I'm having a dilemma on whether i should try to fix this myself or bring it to a shop? What would you guys recommend ? I'd really appreciate your comments thank you.

I'd say that's much more than a clear coat scratch.

Try Dr Color Chip. Way cheaper than taking to a dealer/paint/body shop

Can you feel the scratch with your fingernail? If so, you'll have to bring it to either a paint shop or get an experienced detailer to fill, fill, fill, fill, wetsand, and polish it to make it even with the surrounding paint
