I'll take any advice after my son decided to help 'clean the car' with ahem, some stones:



The scratches are not particularly deep (only just feel them with a fingernail). It's the first time I've tried to remove scratches from my car, could I get away with something like this or would it need something a bit more intense... if so what would be suggested :D. Right now I just want to make them less visible, I'll figure out a longer term solution to getting rid of them completely when I have more time and/or money.

Start with just a normal Polish, by hand or machine

Like this

Do you have any polishes ?

If that does not work then it's gone too deep and will need paint correction done (polishing)

I thought I was being efficient and safe but took an age...

Pressure Wheels > BH Surfex HD Wheels > Rinse > BH Surfex HD Lower Panels > BH Autofoam Panels > Rinse > BH Auto-Wash 2 Buckets > Rinse > Koch Chemie ProtectorWax > Rinse > Dry

Just want a simpler approach as do both family cars if gone to the hassle of getting everything out.

Looked at other options but never get around to coming up with a new more efficient workflow.

im going to be biased here
but check out DIY detail, their "simple" and "fun" approach is efficient and effortless





 
Going to be doing a deep clean in a couple of weeks

I used some left over AG polar blast yesterday. I’d forgotten how powerful Touch Less is in comparison to other products. The Polar Blast looked cool but did bugger all

Now I know why you were 'biased' :)
What product will you put in the bottle? Do you also have a pump sprayer?

:D

I have a battery sprayer, although I don't think it's very good, it also foams though

I have a hand pump foamer but not a sprayer yet

I'll be putting rinseless wash in there as you can use it everywhere, including interior
