Scratches around emblem
i'd apply some touch-up paint with a toothpick, let it dry for several days, wet sand it with 2000 grit circles of paper that are glued to a pencil eraser VERY lightly until it's level with the paint, and then buff it... and to answer the question above... you don't have to do the whole thing, but you would want to blend it in a bit with the rest.

I REALLLLLY would NOT recommend wetsanding or any compound at first go.
Evolution paint on the X's are pretty soft ie. easy to scratch BUT easy to correct compared to something harder.
Why dont you start with something mild and easy to access OTC. Go to the store and get Meguiars ScratchX. Get a quality foam applicator.
Wash, dry, clay the area if you so desire. Then using EVEN pressure on the foam applicator use a small amount on the affected area working it in back and forth, and up and down overlapping passes with your hand and light(at first) pressure until it goes clear, then remove the residue. I would bet you would probably see an improvement after 1 pass of it.
If it improves but not so much to your liking then try another small amount following the same. It should improve again. You can try a little moderate pressure making sure its distributed flat on your hand, your fingertips will make their own impressions considering how soft the new Evo paint is.
Least aggressive method first. No reason to kill a fly with a rocket launcher(though it might be fun
