Looking good,mind you it was lucky they were only laquer scratches,deeper than that would need more than a mop

Agreed - at first I thought they were through the paint, but luckily the little shits are only weak...

I think the bottle laid artistically and carefully, just in shot on the floor what he used , i have similar scratches caused by the cats 

DAS-6 polisher, and the Meguiars microfibre DA system. Sounds poncy, but it works brilliantly. I've given the whole car a quick do with it, pics will be up tomorrow in the gallery. Weather permitting.

One of these - available with various makes stamped on the case, they're all much of a muchness - mine's a Dodo Juice Buff Daddy - http://www.elitecarcare.co.uk/dodo-juice-buff-daddy-dual-action-polisher-and-free-pads.php - just to match everything else I bought at the same time.

Much, much better to use than the generic wool-bonneted buffer you find in Halfords. Practically idiot-proof, and does this -

Sign up on detailingworld.co.uk, once you get past the beards they're a decent lot, you might find someone local with a DA to do the job for a reasonable fee.

How long did that take to do that, and do you have the exact product name for the Meguiars compound you used? One thing I hate is swirl marks, especially on black cars.
