Default Chip repair

Hey wash and wax gurus,

I have a dilemma, when I purchased the car used a few months back, I didn't notice until I washed the car that there were some deep scratches on the trunk of the car. As you can see, the cut looks pretty deep and the previous owner didn't do a good job w/ the touch up paint. I've gone through the DIY guides for chip repair but I want to be sure if my case still applies. I plan on purchasing a porter cable for polishing/waxing but I also do not want to do anymore damage to the chips. Any suggestions of how to approach this problem and any precautions that should be taken when using a PC? TIA

The previous owner believes a shopping cart was hit or something. I will look into the chip repair post and see what I can do. I was worried about the PC making the chip spread even more when I try to polish.
