As Doug says, if it's just a light flesh wound, pic would help. If it's deep & nasty options would be like drop fill with clear lacquer, or tinted lacquer, flat & polish. Sometimes heavily thinned lacquer run in a small scratch with a fine brush will melt in quite nicely. Won't be invisible without flatting out; sandpapers, blocks, compounds - time & money. It's easy to make things worse if you're not familiar with filling & flatting back & polish up.
Sometimes these things are best left. To me an honest scar is usually better than a drop-filled one, bad-sanded one etc.

If done right you should no longer be able to see the scratch.
Apparently works well at getting scratches out of plastics.
WD40
Works at getting scratches out of laminate flooring( although you will slip on it and break your neck after).
One or the other or neither.
I've used it on a vintage Gibson with no ill-effects.
The cack-handed clumsy oaf's guitar.
funniest one was a mates 90's white studio. It got stained pink when he played a gig dressed as a lobster. He did nothing about it for 2 years. Normal cleaners wouldn't shift it by the time he asked if I could take a look.
you do have to do the whole thing though, even if it's only lightly
