rubbing compound, being a compound is a relatively heavy cut. although you didn't strip off any paint, you removed some clear coat, and that is why the scratch is gone. I personally start off with 3m Swirl Mark Remover first (although it says it's for swirls, it is just a mild polish which can be used for anything), and then if that doesn't work I'll follow on with RC, then back to SMR as a final polish.

edit: btw, did you get the fine-cut or medium-cut?
