3M rubbing compound?
Well that works out well I was going to go to Walmart for a couple of other things tomorrow anyway, I'll have to try it out. Thanks a lot guys you've been really helpfull.
Meguiars #6, best darn stuff out there. Professional grade cleaner/wax. A little difficult to find but well worth the search I've been using it for17 years.

You rub too hard on those scratches and you will get spider webs. Sometimes it's best just to leave alone. You paint rock chips and they become poky dots like I have. Either way it's up to you.

How much was the 3M kit from Walmart?

Well, guess what? The kit is made by 3M. It's called "Professional chip & scratch repair kit"
And as I said....it works great. Just be careful with the drill rpms. Always feel the area
with your hand to make sure it doesn't get too hot.

just get a lil tub of rubbing compound - idk how the squeeze stuff is, but turtle wax makes it in a lil tub...it's clay red color...just rub on your paint with a soft rag (like for detailing)...works good...you'll be set 4sho

I'd claybar the heck out of it, first, to make certain the defect isn't subject to change by the least destructive process possible. Then I'd use polishing compound before resorting to rubbing compound, for the same reason. You may eventually arrive at 1000-grit sandpaper, but starting weak means you don't have as much to recover from when the strongest necessary process is discovered.
I'll bet the http://www.meguiarsonline.com/forums/index.php forums have some good advice on this. I know they've done rock chips.
