Getting rid of a slight scratch

Apparently, when using detailer early this a.m., wiping off some tree crud or water, I put a faint scratch on the body panel behind the rear wheel well. Microfiber towels have a tendency to pick up some grit or little stuff that sticks in the fiber, and if you don't notice it, watch out! Only I can see it, but is there something I can use to diminish the scratch further. The car is a 2007 GT in Tungsten. Any advice would be great.

I'd try Meguiars Scratch-X as a first step. Easy to use, and available all over. I've had good success with it in the past on different cars.

If it is that faint then just normal Megiures Cleaner wax will do just fine.

It worked like a charm! Learned my lesson about microfiber towels. Make sure they are thoroughly clean before use! Always!
