Suggestion on fixing these blemish?
 
I am a total noob at auto paint and I was wondering if anybody got any ideas or suggestions on methods or specific products that can help fix these blemishes like rubbing compound? touch up paint? or do I have no choice and get a respray?

I ran my finger over the blemishes and they do not feel like there is a deep scratch. It feels dull and rough compare to the rest of the panel like the clearcoat is gone.

You wont be able to completely rid either of those because they are well past the clear coat. Especially the first pic. I would first take some over the counter scratch repair and see how much it helps. It should make the damage much less noticeable.

To repaint or not is up to you and if your can live with it or not, but like I said try the product first.

this is what you need to do for a cheap and not so perfect fix.wet sand with 1000 then 1500 and buff it out. it will look better but the bumper will still have the spot that is to raw plastic and the panel will have like ring marks from the clear and base coat.

thanks for the tips! I think I might just repaint the panel or find a used one to replace.
