y'all are gonna laugh, but I was in a dollar store last year and it had a little "AS SEEN ON TV" section. Had this little kit for like $9.95, from Simonize, cheazy little "AA" battery buffer, a couple of little fifty cent piece sized buffers and a tube of paste for surface scratches.
My truck is full of surface scratches from going down trails hunting and fishing in Ga. Little ones you can't see more than 5 ft. away, but they bug me anyway.
The damn little cheap POS took 90% out better than anything I've ever used. If there was NO bare metal showing, this little sucker took 'em right out...

For all those recommending rubbing compound, if you don't know what you're talking about, don't post.
Rubbing compound is the last ditch effort for scratches. Any decent polish will remove scratches. Unless you have extensive experience with detailing, rubbing compound will make things worse. Sure the scratches will be gone, but so will some of your clear coat. Also, if you don't have an orbital, it won't do anything at all.
