Best solution for cleaning up these scratches?



  BG182 FF
The camera is making them look worse however they dont look great.. :/ was wondering whats out there to tidy these up abit or possibly get rid! there not deep scratches but i can feel them slightly if you run your finger over them. Ive tried a compound polish and turtle wax colour restorer but no such look :/ help would be great!

Thanks

If you can feel an edge to the scratch, best you'll achieve with polishing is to round off the edges making it not so deep and noticeable.

Some of them don't look that bad and with a proper compound you should be able to clean them up quite a bit. Maybe best trying to find someone in your area with a machine polisher to have a look
 
Wet sanding for the first pic, some 2000 grit lightly with soapy water, followed with 3000 grit then a cutting polish.

Trial and error if you haven't done it before, but as long as you dont go mental with the sanding it produces good results.
