Meguires makes some good scratch remover. Called X-90 or something like that.

Meguiar's Scratch X 2.0

This Works ... good for light clear coat scratches




http://www.jbtoolsales.com/Meguiars-...cratch-Remover


The strong yet gentle formula is safe for all paints and, unlike some surface correctors, SCRATCH X 2.0 will not abrade your paint--leaving more scratches than you began with.

I just used Meguiar's Ultimate Polish on mine yesterday. It not only removes swirls and light scratches, it actually adds oils back into the paint to richen the color. The stuff is awesome!

Make sure to get the Ultimate POLISH and not the Ultimate COMPOUND. The compound is much more aggressive.

I agree with the Meguiar's scratch X 2.0. It worked for me.

I'll have to try that. My SG had some swirls in the fairing when I bought it and I tried the Harley scratch remover, what a joke!

If you have a vivid black, give the Turtle Wax Black Box a try. A stepped process, but fantastic results.
