Scratched thru clear coat....how to fix

Well this didn't take long. Backing up trailer and caught the power pole box and got about a 6 inch scratch alongside the travel trailer above the exterior storage box. I can feel the scratch with my fingernail so I think that it is deeper than just clearcoat. The trailer is 2024 Bambi 22FB. I looked at the airstream pens and others online so I'm looking for advice on best way to fix / best product(s) to use.

Thanks to everyone in advance

Airie, I feel your pain! At least you were the one to put the first scratch in your new trailer. It’s happened to many of us.

I’ve used the clear coat applicator on the end of a DupliColor touch up pen for my wife’s car. So far, it’s held up and not showing any filiform.

I’m sure others will have more suggestions but so far, that’s worked for me.
