you need to take your car to a paint or detail shop and have it buffed

Answer 3

The light scratches are what we call paint swirl marks and marring. It results from improper car washing and exposure to the environment. First thing I would do is give it a thorough wash using Dawn; this will break down most contaminates and strip layers of previous waxes. Rinse and Dry. Now you must clay the car, I recommend a moderate grade clay; this will lift microscopic contaminates from the paint/clear coat. Next, great ready to polish. Tape off any plastic vinyl trim to prevent marking them. Using either rotary or random orbital, use Menzerna Super Intensive Polish with a yellow pad. Afterwards follow through using Menzerna PO106FA with either a white or orange pad depending on how severe the left over halo's are. Finally once the paint is free over swirls, use sealant and/or wax to protect the paint from the weather.

Answer 4

I had mine taken to a local body shop.  Did you want to fix it yourself?  It didn't cost much and in the end it was a much better deal.
