Default Interior Scratch

I've had my car for 3 weeks and noticed this morning an inch long scratch on the finish of the cup holder. The wood is fine but the clear finish is scratched. Can anyone recommend a way to fix this? I am a perfectionist and will focus on this until it's fixed. Please help.

I took out a number of very fine scratches with Menzerna FPII - probably the least abrasive polish in my arsenal. I applied by hand (as you can imagine) and it didn't take much effort. That clearcoat is surprisingly soft. I've since followed up with three coats of paint sealant (Four Star UPP) and haven't noticed any new scratches. Good luck...
