Default How can you remove scratches?

I got some little scratches from wax and some from I dont know what the heck but i got it like that from the previous owner. Is there any kind of compound anyone would suggest to use to remove them?

Ive been kind of thinking they should make like an otterbox for a car. Ive been worried about my car being damaged by hail and with my insurance being cut off temporarily. I dont have a garage so this kinda sucks for me. Anyone have a suggestion on that too besides a garage?

well, first off.
the scratches are not from "wax".......maybe from the process of "Waxing" but not the wax itself.
I suggest hitting up the "detailing" forums and look around.
i would suggest getting a Porter Cable buffer and a selection of pads.
doing it by hand these days is just a waste of energy and time.
a porter cable, white pad, and M105 by meguires will probably be what you need, followed up by the second step of m205 and then a sealant/wax.
without seeing i cant say for sure but thats usually a good start to maintaining a show quality paint/shine.
