Bramble Scratches aaaaaggghhhbb!!!

Guys,
I have bramble scratches down both sides of my Vogue. They're surface scratches but are visible particularly in bright sunlight. Aside from paying £300 for a pro is there anything that I can buy to do it myself?
I'm broke and getting it ready to sell hence the DIY job!! 'An it's Tommy this an' Tommy that,
Chuck 'im out, the Brute!
But it's thin red line of 'eroes,
When the guns begin to shoot......

I'd pay the cash and get it done properly.

Bighag. It won't be anything like £300 mate.

I had my car mopped and polished all over for half that. check my gallery .

He is based east london/Essex but travels. Google him.

Bear in mind decent materials + your time? Alcohol and eBay is never a good mix

As long as you cannot feel the scratches with the back of you nail, they will be easy to polish out. I would find a local company or person (you may find an individual willing to help you) via 'detailing world' website.
There are quite a few people on this Web site who treat this type of thing as a hobby, they may help you for a bit of beer money. Its worth a go, i'd do it myself but i'm down in Bristol.
Good Luck
Andy
