door handle scratches (need protector film)

so after a year on my AW i have a ton of vertical scratches behind door handles in the little indentation thingy. i guess from fingernails. i always keep mine trimmed, but still, sometimes unintentionally touch the paint.

how do i get rid of those?

also i've seen some cars with clear protective film (like clear bra type) in those door indentations. anyone know where i can get it?

removal requires the usual ordeal: paint correction by polishing. protection can be sealants/wax or as you said a clear bra. either way, try to remove the scratches first
