Best way to get out deep scraches?
I not sure how deep it is but I dont see chrome plate so it must not be that bad. However, I used Scratch X and got some of it off. Is there some sort of primer or other coat that can get it to blend in??????

"Best"? A new bumper & fresh paint is undeniably the best.

It's still the BEST way to get rid of the scratch, which is what you asked. Any other method will just cover the scratch or remove more metal.

Also I got some Dupli-Color from Autozone which matches the exact color. But they dont have any primer, would it make a difference without primer??

Lets get serious here.

Got a photo of the scratch?

Can you feel it with your fingernail? does it look like it when through the base coat?
