What is everyone's opinions on the best stratch remover for light bodywork scratches.

Noticed on my bonnet that I have a couple of light stratches, about 2cm long. Cause unknown. They are not very deep at all just a little frustrating to have them on a car that is just over 2 weeks old already.

Used to use t-cut in the past but many reviews are saying there are much better products to use.

Thoughts appreciated.

Farcela G10 as used by Trade; http://www.farecla.com/automotive/compo ... ompoundSee demos on YouTube. If still resistant use the harsher G3 version. You can use their application sponges as on E Bay; they're called "waffle pads".

Perhaps Nissan needs to get into this Scratch Shield Business a bit more, although it will probably cost - cars, mobile phone cases etc - Dave

This stuff is great:

It's all that's needed. No need to refine with different grades of compound!

Would second meguiars ultimate compound,or if they are really light scratches,meguiars scratch x 2,as it's slightly less aggressive.
Or really,really light scratches Auto Glym super resin polish will do it, as this has a mild cutting action.
Throw your t cut away,causes more damage than good.
Remember to rewax afterwards.
