Default Removing sanding marks from paint???

Hi, I recently used a turtle wax product with many stages of sanding and a clear coat pen to repair some key marks. After sanding as instructed, I applied a paint restorer that came with the kit and it only removed some of the sanding marks. I found that I can remove a bit of the marks with my fingernail, but I don't want to scratch the paint. So I went out and bought a cheapo turtle wax orbital and some polisher that is supposed to remove the defects. Any words of advice or things to try?

Word of advice: Before you "sand" your car again or even touch it for that matter, I would research before to avoid situations like these... Check out www.autogeek.com for tons of info and tips on detailing. GL!

Yeah I Should've. I didn't think that the kit would have such heavy duty abrasive
