Removing scratches on laptops

As the title suggests, any tips on what I can use to get rid of some scratches and marks on a typical Dell laptop?

Not tried it myself, but maybe use a little T-Cut? Its used on car paint to remove light scratches, maybe experiment a little on the bottom of the laptop first, in case it doesn't work well.

on the body, try Colour Bak or whatever it is called from Halfords. Each can is formulated for several different colours and fills in slight cracks, scratches and defects. I am a bit dubious about T Cut as that is quite abrasive, but with the amount of plastic on todays cars, it might just work.

For the Screen, forget it!

good luck,
