J-Mac,

Use Mothers California Gold Clay Bar. The product comes with a clay bar and detailer spray to get all inpurties out of the paint and some surface scratches if they are not imbedded into the clear coat. Then you apply a coat of wax that is also included in the kit. Cost of the kit is $16.00 at Kragen or any other autoparts store. You will be throughly impressed on how your vehicle will look and feel.

go with meguiars 3 step system. it takes a bunch of elbow grease but it works. try their scratch x for the scratches. if the scratches aren't too deep it should get rid of them

Carnuba wax, with zero abrasives for my Dak.

Probably won't work well on minor scratches though.

wax?? is just that its wax...comes off very fast in a hot climate lasts a bit longer in cold ones but its still just wax...get yourself a good sealer....2 coats and you are good to go...wax doesnt protect its soft wax :) so you are going to get scratches in the clear coat you can wax all you want but will still get scratches..
