what do you guys recommend for polishing out lightweight scratches on the paintwork?

nothing too major but a bit of scuffing etc

T-cut does the job on minor scratches but recently I discovered cutting compound which is more abrasive and as a result is more effective, you just need to use some sort of polish once you have got rid of the scratches to finish off.

I use Autoglym super resin polish and it does a good job of getting rid of light scratches.
