Default Minor scratches, need help to remove.

I noticed minor scratches to my rear hatch. You can barely notice them outside, but in my garage under the floresent light, I notice them.
What is the best product to use to get rid of them?
They appear to be minor scratches to the clear.
I tried scratch X with minor improvment.
I probably got them while washing my car even though I try to be very careful.

Thanks
Nick

Sounds like it's time for a trip to the "car care section" on the Forum http://forums.corvetteforum.com/forumdisplay.php?f=10 ... You amy try 3M's #39009 Scratch and Swirl Remover and then finish up with Zaino's Z-5 (if you are a Zaino user). Check out the car care section for more tips on this.

Do you have a Porter Cable random orbital ??? Considering one ?? If so, look at either Menzerna Final Polish from www.properautocare.com or Einszett Paint Polish from www.detailersparadise.com , as both are very light polishes but work easily with an orbital and remove easily with a microfiber towel.
