If it's only surface then use a good quality compund/cutting agent such as T-Cut or Ferroclad to start with to see if that's enough to do the job. Do you have a friendly bodyshop nearby? It's always worth asking their advice, the last thing you want to do is to be 'heavy handed' & do further damage!
If the paint is broken then you will need a touch up stick which I presume will be available from your dealer.
Patience is the key word here, take your time to get the right result.
PS: Who got the frying pan over the head for the scratch?

It's very light, my sis scratched it on a wooden fence lol its not a long scratch that's very obvious but it's obvious enough for me to notice, there are a few faint white lines but i dont think the paint is chipped
Dood, could you please fill out your profile with regards to where you are located and specifics on what you drive as this will help members better help you with your questions, as this in an international forum - thanks.

If it's very light start with T-Cut, work in a 'swirling' motion & see how you get on, this wont do any more harm & if it works then great. If not I'd still recommend a friendly bodyshop to see whether they have a slightly more 'coarse' cutting compound that won't make it any worse.
Failing that send sis round to do the 'dumb female' act & tell them her head hurts cos of the frying pan
