Fix a scratched black fender

I have a 28 special coupe that I painted several years ago. I store it in a garage with several flannel sheets over the car. Anyway, a squirrel got into the garage and tried to climb up on the car via the flannel sheet on the front fender. The sharp claws on the squirrel made s couple fine scratches in the fender. The scratches are not deep, however there is some light colored primer showing on the fender now. I am looking for a way to cover the minor scratches. Anyone that knows of some way to hide the scratches, please post it here. Black wax might be a solution, but I don't know if black wax is made. I am attaching a couple pictures showing the scratches. The scratches are not large enough to dab some black paint on them.
Thanks for any help with this.

What type of paint was applied ? Lacquer, acrylic enamel, 2 coat with clear, etc ?

Rusty - I have used paste shoe polish to fill light scratches. Buff it well with an old t-shirt. If you are not happy with the result some paint thinner and a toothbrush will remove it.

Use a black touch-up pen.

I used PPG Concept - Acrylic Urethane on the fender.

I will also cast a vote for black shoe polish.

You mentioned in post1 that primer was visible. If you can recall what type of paint was originally applied, a more permanent solution can be available. For example, if acrylic enamel or lacquer, you can brush the paint in , and./ or build up with an airbrush and perhaps sand, feather and polish the edges. Some exposed primers are not usually water proof and rust can form below it.

I would get some Turtle Wax white light duty polishing compound. I've used it for years on the helicopter finishes and plexiglass windows. It's like jewlers rouge. It works on acrylic urethane pretty well. Just try to lightly swirl your new clean soft cloth as you polish then buff with a very clean or new buffing towel. If the scratches are shallow then it should take most of it out. If they are deep then smoothing it over is the best you can do other than carefully touching it up and buffing it out. It's an art to touch up damaged paint.

I will suggest calling your insurance company , home owners and car insurance company , you maybe covered and let a professional repair the fender .
