very fine compound and an orbital buffer should work. If not, progressively increase your compound grain until you see results. However, if you dont have experience with the more abrasive compound I would stay away from it. Can damage your paint very quickly if you dont know what youre doing.

scratch-x is an very fine compound, this would be a good product to start with. If this doesnt yield much of a result, step up to a more mild compound.

oh and make sure you wax the area after you use the compound on it, like myron stated.
