when i first purchased this tree it had some nasty scares as you can see below. i haven't worked on them cause i simply just didn't know how to even start or what to do. Now that the tree is developing nicely i want to start healing some scares. the scares pictured below are of my main concern as they are very noticeable. any hard pruning ive done i have applied cut past and within less than a year they completely heal over you can see a healing scare in the first photo. my plan is and please correct me if im wrong to grind or sand down the scare so its flat and apply some cut past on it in hopes it will still heal over.as you can see the wood in the center of the scares is bulging so i would think i need to grind or sand it so its flat?

But that's me, and the tree is yours after all.
