Go to an O'rielly's or something, and buy a buffing wheel that will fit in an drill. Us a generous ammount of a light buffing compound, and starting slow, buf the scratches out. If this is something that scares you to do, haul it over to a local body shop and ask them to buff them out for you. Chances are if you call ahead, they would do it while you wait.

3M Hand Glaze works really well and is light enough that you don't have to worry about removing paint. I know you can get it a Napa

a clear plastic lense???

novus plastic scratch polish and finish is exactly the products to use...no buffing wheel

One question is whether you can feel the scratch with your fingers. If the scratch is very obvious to the touch it may not come out. If not, then some polishing compound might work. I wonder is scratch X from Meguiers would work ... it works on minor scratches in clear coat automotive finishes.
