Rubbing Compound Blooper

Hi all, I just tried to use rubbing compound to remove some scratches and ended up putting about 10000000 micro scratchers in my bumper. It looks really dull. I already tried to waz it a bunch of times but it wont come out. Please Help!

Turtle wax scratch and swirl remover might give you temporary relief. It hid a long surface scratch on the side of my car.

I don't think its a permanent solution since after the winter the scratch is visible again. But that probably means it does little or no harm - unlike rubbing compond.

We have every P&S product at the shop, if its not too bad we can just hit it with some Ultra Coat then polish, if its a bit deep we might use a bit of Clearcut first.
