Try a polish or scratch X then claybar the area...Is there any residue or stickyness left?

Is the paint missing from the are or are they just clear coat scratches? Can you feel them with your fingernail?

I would try Scratch X first. If that doesn't remove it, try a mild polish. You can buy polishes for hand use. I have a Porter Cable and use Griot's and Meguiar's polishing liquids. Usually, Scratch X takes out many mild scratches and leaves a nice, smooth finish. If that doesn't work, PM Rasky. He will help out.
