best scratch removal??

long story short...

I usually enjoy morning drives, but today was different
..a broken down pickup with a lot of garbage in his bed...a big box flies off of the bed with some garbage in it...scatters allover the highway...no other way for me to go...BOOM...SCRATCH...hits my passenger headlight and fender....got to my job...checked it out...there were some light scratches on my headlight and fender....went to a carwash...got it washed...looked at it again, there they were...damn truck...damn scratches...

any good info/resource on scratch removal wax....i heard 3M is pretty good...
any advice would be greatly appreciated...Thank you.

use a slightly moist wax pad and some 1500 grit buffing compound (do not use to much pressure). Then follow with a good wax or hand glaze. I use CarBrite products but that is mainly because I know a supplier.

ok the best product that I know of is made by 3m its a heavy scratch remover...I dont know about the headlight but it will take any scratch out of a fender and so forth. Go to 3m's website and look for the scratch removers but make sure after u take the scratch out you use a quality wax to recoat a clear coat on the paint.

Good luck
