Default Going to a car show and need some help. (touch ups)

I have a black 06 GT. I'm going to a car show this weekend and I need some help.
What is the best thing to do for light scratches on the car?

I have some below the hoodpins (from the pins), and I also have some that are on my drivers side door close to the handle.
I have no clue what to do or what products to use.
I have no buffers or anything.

Need some advice on safe and good products and exactly what to do.
Thanks!

It's home at home sweet home!

Actually the Ford dealership is sponsoring it.
They became a Saleen dealer and are having a nice car show.

Being as this town is'nt that big it won't be like a Dallas show or anything but for around here it will
be good.
Believe it or not this town has ALOT of classic stangs in it.
I do wish with the shows here they would give awards but they never organize prize shows.

Maguires and 3M have a 3 step process. I used the 3M step 1 which is a rubbing compound then used step 2 and 3 from Maguires. Follow the directions and you will have a nice bright shine. You may also want to claybar the car as well then follow that up with either Maguires Gold Class or Ice wax.
