Light scratches in finish

[Sheldon]

What's the best thing to use to polish out some very light scratches on the
top of an inexpensive classical (gloss finish)? I'm thinking light polish
for automobile finishes, but would like some input. I'm also thinking to
just forget about it (character and all that).

I bought it off the wall at my local shop (got a great deal), and it looks
like somebody may have played a few songs on the thing with a pick.

Thanks.

If Meguier's #9 (swirl remover) doesn't do it, #2 (fine-cut cleaner)
probably will

Sheldon-
Try some Meguiar's #7 Mirror Glaze. Or Petros Finish Restorer. We use both on
a daily basis at the shop. You Can also use Meguiar's #9 Swirl remover after
#7. Just don't use any of these as a regular polish on your instrument-they are
mildly abrasive. But if just used very very occasionally to remove the minor
scratches you can get the "wet look" shine back. Or you can leave it like you
said. If you put the damage there in the first place, you probably will again,
and will drive yourself crazy polishing it out repeatedly. Good luck
