Scratched my rear bumper!!!

The other day, after buying some stuff, I was backing up and low and behold there was a little set of bushes behind the car that I really did'nt see. When I heard the car smash into the branches, I slammed on the brakes. Oh ****, what have I done. I got out and saw minor hairline scratches and thought, eh. When I got home, I saw that there were two deep scratches on the bumper. Not long, but like a half inch long and kinda deep. I put polish on them, and WOW, the thin ones dissappeared. The others seemed to vanish as well. Now, is there anything else I can do to make them disappear. You really don't notice unless your right up on them. And yes, I did a search.

CIVICMAN67 is an unknown quantity at this point
fraga,
I know this might sound shady, but try using that turtle wax stuff. It is the bottle of black wax that comes with the "lipstick" stuff. I tried the red stuff on my old truck and it worked ok, but it seems to me that the black would work better!
