Easiest way to...

Whats the easiest way to get those little..tiny scratches out of your car..I have a little container of the touch up paint from acura..but that is hard to use such a big brush for the little scratches...I have a black CL so basically everything stands out...I was lookin towards a paint job but i don't think i could save up the money for that and also i don't think it'd be worth it..thanks guys

Go to an artists paint supply shop and get a very fine brush. Use a thin amount of paint at a time and coat it a few times so it doesn't gobb up. I have black also. If you get a bad scratch, you can put paint on kinda thick and then use 1500 grit if finer and wet sand your scratch. Takes time and practice but looks like new.

Or if the scratch isn't down to the primer, use ScratchX by Meguiars. Great Stuff, I would suggest trying to buff before painting.
