Keyed my car

Listen to this... On christmas eve some knucklehead decided to key my black paint from the front door all the way to my tail light.. I have tried many many different products and the scratches are nearly gone in some spots but in other spots I still see major ones. I don't think they got threw the clear coat but they are still visible.. any suggestions on some products and/or where to get them would be greatly appreciated...
