3M Perfect-it III rubbing compund (part # 05933)...I use it on some kinda deep scratches...there is another stage rough cut compound..but cant remember the part number...if it is through the clear you might have to wet sand to lessen the affects of the scratch....then hit with the perfect compound and then hit with a hand glaze and wax...seems like a lot of steps but jus depends on how bad the scratch is..good luck..

Thats what you want. I wouldn't suggest using the rough cut stuff from 3m might be toooo much.

Not meaning to hijack but I just got some bad scratches on my truck too. Where would the best place to get the 3M rubbing compound be?
