I decided to do one more treatment to the scratch because I was bored and it sounded like fun. I bought a Sharpie silver paint pen with extra fine point ( see http://www.amazon.com/Sharpie-Marker-Extra-fine-Silver-Single/dp/B003JJMW8C ). I think I paid like $2.50 for this exact pen at Michaels after a 40% rebate (they have them all the time; just print the online coupons).

The marker line was fine but, of course, far wider than the scratch and the color was much darker than the silver when wet. I let it dry for about a minute (it lightened as it dried to match the unit better), then I took one more drop of the Meguiar's Scratch X 2.0's and rubbed it gently with my finger a bit to remove the paint that was above the scratch, leaving the paint behind only in the crack (do NOT rub this for long or else it can remove all the paint)
The result is that the original scratch went from the 30% of the original scratch noticeably (after the Meguiar's treatment) to about 10%. Now it is nearly impossible to see unless you are viewing it from just the right angle (i.e. perpendicular to the line).

Attached are two pictures. I took a shot of the iPad before either treatment and adjusted it in Photoshop to be about exactly how noticeable the scratch was before the treatment (it was still under the ArmourSuit at that time). Keep in mind that this shot was angled intentionally to maximize its visibility, so this wasn't a super deep scratch. I then took another shot after both treatments and at the same angle. Again, I adjusted it slightly in Photoshop to match what I am seeing now (and again the shot is worse than real life - by a long shot).
I think the results shown in the picture are perfectly accurate and pretty much speak for themselves. I would say the two steps were a 100% successful since I did not think I would be able to reduce the scratch as much as I did given what others were saying online.
