contact a body shop or coach builders. You will find that most garages do not do this work themselves and you will save £££

how deep is "quite deep" ? You could try one of those polishes which has colour particles built in. Will need repeated application. But if deep means b....... deep, then job requires filler, then smoothing and painting. Unless you are very skilled, I suggest leaving it to a Body Shop. Depends on how proud you are and the value of the car.
