Does your clear coat easily scratch?

i noticed on my NBP TL that the paint easily scratches. i know, i know, black cars show the scratches more but this is ridiculous! anyway, are there any good scratch removers out there?

good thing the scratches are only "clear-coat" deep.

3M Swirl Mark Remover
Meguiars Scratch-X

Both are very good products and can be applied by hand or with an orbital or rotary buffer. I would recommend an orbital if you are doing it. You'll get much better results than by hand.

I had 6 black cars all clear coats scratch. The Darker the color the more it shows. I use 3M Hand Glaze to help my cars look pretty. But for major scratches Detailer. Thank god for Satin Silver.
