    Lots of ways. One of the easiest is to get some rubbing compound and just work it into the surface of your rig. I've found that I can get some scratches out just by doing this.

    Get yourself onto the Meguiars website (Meguiars.com) and they have lots of information on how to restore your paint. I have used their products for over 30 years and swear by them. The use of a random orbit or DA (dual action) buffer along with an assortment of their products will leave you amazed by the results.
