by 'hanging the fingernail' on the damage, are you sure it's not the garbage can that transferred some of its plastic material to your bumper on impact? seems kinda odd that your paint would get scraped right off with such a low impact with a very flexible object...
if that's the case though, a clay bar or a good polish would get it right out.
i'm not a big fan of the 'fill with touchup paint' method, with or without clearcoat, especially on a new car. you will always still see it and it will drive you crazy. usually on bumpers, they sand the scraped area smooth, and blend the paint/clearcoat on the edges of the painted area. it's a very simple job, really.
