It works really well. I would recommend using like a 220 grit with it though. I usually do a 120 grit sand on a .2 layer model before I do any fill.
It does dry kinda fast though, so I would do a pass or two and leave it alone.
If you keep messing with it as it dries, you will start pulling it up and causing it to clump. Kinda like bondo does when it starts to cure.
Then I use the plastic wood for seams and any imperfections ect.
Sand the whole thing down with 220.
Then do a coat of filler primer sand with 220 repeat till you are happy, then paint.

It will do the job for you.
Depending on the depth of the scratches you can use wood-filler to fill up the holes. If the scratches are mostly superficial, try sanding it out.
Is the door painted or natural? In the former case full restoration will be easier. And yes, /r/woodworking or /r/DIY would probably be better for a question like this.
You could fill it with something like this, but it would look better if it were sanded and finished.
