Fred, if you ever end up sending out those last few panels add me to the list, I scratched mine getting it into the frame.

Will do Rick.
?? the coating hardness is near the one of glass, are you 100% sure that composite frame is what scratched it? You'd need something much harder than the coating hardness itself to be able to scratch it (e.g. sharp stainless steel, sand, etc).
Obviously the panel can't be buffed/polished out without taking out the coating first. You could try a range of medium grain sand paper (al oxide based) e.g. 600, 1000, 1400, and finish with a #2000 before hand polishing. Just mask the area that doesn't need repair and you could potentially rescue it (50/50 really). Deep scratch? or just annoying?

Option 2: mask area around scratch the best you can, brush/clean debris with hot distilled water, let dry, and fill with a clear epoxy (need micro medical syringe).
