Scratch removed from my E92

So my dumb faded friend got in my car and scratched my door nicely with his sunglasses... I was reading here on E90 post about a scratch remover called Quixx thats TUV approved from Germany so i bought it on ebay and used it today... That ish really works, here are the before and after pics... Hes lucky i didnt see the scratch until later after i had dropped him off!

One of the vendors had this warning:

"PLEASE BE ADVISED that the QUIXX system is not compatible with NANO-technology paints found on some high-end German vehicles such as AUDI and MERCEDES. Ironic, we know, but we feel that we should bring this to you the customer's attention."

Is it ok on BMW paint?

That means it won't work on ceramic paint, which BMW doesn't use. It's probably a by-hand abrasive with some fillers, like Meg's ScratchX.

I bought the kit that comes with 2 tubes, cloth and a few pieces of 3000 grit sandpaper... Its the basic 2 step kit they make for around $20.
