How do I remove light scratches?

[Gilli]

Help! I washed my husbands mercedes, lightly scrubbing off some tree debris! I have made small visable scratches on the hood of the car in the clear coat. How can I remove them? Please tell me the correct way to wash, wax and care for the exterior of this car. We live in a hot humid climate, what are the best wax and shine products to use on the exterior? The car is medium to dark green. Please help me correct this this stupid attempt to clean his car! Thanks!
