If the scratches aren't too deep color sanding and buffing would likely do the trick. A local paintless scratch/dent removal service could probably handle it for a reasonable price. My local MB dealership brings in a person 2 days each week to work on wheel scratches and minor dent/ding/scratch repairs....you may want to see if your local dealer does the same.

Start with some rubbing compound; you'd be amazed how much better that stuff makes small scratches look!

Sometimes rubbing compound makes it worse especially when you look at it at an angle. It does a number on the clearcoat. Need to be real careful.

Have clarify which product to not use! Many new & modern scratch removers do nothing to the paint negatively. Maguire see great off the shelf brand with varying levels of aggressiveness.
