i have that same stuff in my color. i used it on some of the rock chips. from a distance it looked good but once you get up close you could still see it. i used a really fine craft painting brush. the paint in those tubes is so thick that its hard to get into small areas like that without putting to much on. everyone keeps telling me lots of coats with small amount each coat. i found it very hard to do.

Here's a two-part video of how a detailer would approach this issue.

That touch up paint will make it less noticeable but DAMN those are deep. Use a toothpick to slowly add more paint (using the dots method) over a period of time in order to fill the scratch. That is the only way if you do not want to involve insurance or repaint.

Alot of wet sanding and paint repair is going to be required for that to look "good" again. Touch up paint is going to be TOUGH for damage like that, it does much better with smudges and abrasions. That's an outright gouge....who the hell did that to your car? Who the hell does that to any car?
