The rock chips and scratches will still be there after the repaint. If you really want them gone you'll have to pay the shop extra to sand them out or glaze them. Either way they should prime them afterwards. Same goes for the scratches- they have to be sanded out and primed and sanded again and sealed before paint. If you can't feel the scratches with your fingernail then you could probably get away with having the shop sand them out before paint with no bodywork necessary. Most of the time those kinds of scratches can even be sanded and buffed out with no painting needed. If you held off on paint then I suppose you could get touch up paint for the chips but you're kind of screwed on the deep scratches.
