touch up paint and or t cut is your best bet, even car wax may disguise them a little bit.

no!
T-Cut is an abrasive - hence the CUT part of its name!
It brings up the colour and shine cos it literally 'cuts' the top layer of paint off of your car! T cut it too much or unnecessarily and you'll remove all your paint!
Only use it if you have to or if your paint has faded. jesus jones!
Any good car wax - autoglym is wel tried on here, I use turtle wax - good stuff. don't get any on yor plastic though as it is really hard to remove and shows up like crazy!
I'd touch it up with touchup paint- patiently! minimally to hide the primer,
or - if you have the time, try t cutting it gently to see if this hides the scrath - but not too much t-cut ok!
then once cut wax it once its done. make sure the surfaces are clean and dry first - but most of all...
...READ THE INSTRUCTIONS ON EVERYTHING!

Yaeh I have this scratch removal kit that is awesome. It can do anything from just a scratch in the laquer to a full scratch to the bare metal.
However for the bare metal scratches you will need a pot of touch up paint that matches your colour. Everything else is included.
Its made by a compny called MER. I was using it last weekend and my 2.5 year old corsa C looks new again.

I was looking at that on QVC, worth getting then? Can you post any pics of before and after?
