Try laquer thinner first, it will be much faster and take the paint out of the scratches.

My guess is that it will not give you full or complete results... it might even do nothing...

The most common ones are usually a sturdy metal pole ~ 3 feet high that protects something. They have them around the gas pumps, drive-thru's, etc.
