Default Reccommended products for MB?

Hey guys I've had my MB 370 for about 5 months now and I recently noticed that besides the swirls, I have a couple spots where there are very fine scratches. The scratches are only viewable at certain angles, but they are there. I know they aren't past the clearcoat, as I can't feel them with my fingernail. I tried some scratch-x on them and it helped a little bit, but they are still there. Does anyone have tips or reccomendations on what products I can use to alleviate this? I'm afraid to get too aggressive with any product as I don't want to create more problems and scratches.

Thanks

Maybe a pro detailer? Well worth the money when his done. .

MB is short for magnetic black and monterey blue.

Get a cheap orbital buffer and meguires swirl remover. There are vids on youtube to help also. This is what I did and was amazed. You don't have to be a pro.

sounds like halograms. you'll want to use a pc or any decent random orbital and polish it out.
