    Just leave it is my suggestion (clearcoat scratches). Unless you are a pro these touch up pens will look terrible. Unless you are getting rust or something. On my truck haven't touched up the scratched hood made by the clips on the OEM hood protector.

    Ive repaired scratches on my wifes Fusion that had a very heavy metallic black. I filled the scratch, wet sanded with a Meguires stone and repeated a few times. I then touched up the clear, light wetsand, light rubbing compound then polish. It was a lot of work, but came out fine. I did it because I was selling the car and one of the kids gouged the paint with their bike
