It may seem obvious now, but when doing scratch removal, it's usually best to call it "good enough." Without a paint thickness gauge, you have not idea how deep into the clear you've gone.
I have a scratch I was dealing with and I personally stopped after a few passes of medium/heavy compound and then a polish. It could probably be better, but I don't know how much clear I removed so far, and I don't want to risk it. Ironically, I need to visit a "pro" because I think the scratch may also be pushed in/dented, I can see some distortion in the damaged area at the right angles. So...need to call in the pros. If for me PDR gets it 90% of perfect with a few residual scratches that you can barely see unless you look, that's probably worth a couple hundred vs me experimenting further.
