Well, that certainly sucks ! Not that it helps any but there's plenty of those floating around out there.
With it being stainless hopefully it can be corrected (polished out) fairly painlessly. Post a pic when you can.

I do plan to polish the scratch out as best as I can. I'm going to used mother's Polishing Compound. I wonder if I should polish by hand or with a power tool like a Dremel?
