Scratch Removal?

I'm sure many could care less. A truck is a tool and it will end up with "character".

I recently had to drive down a dirt road choked with brush on all sides.....needless to say i got numerous scratches. Not scratches down to bare metal but scratches in the paint.

Does anyone know of any products to help hide the scratches? I know that with use will come some wear....i don't baby the truck so scratches are expected. It will be a long time before i purchase another vehicle (both because i love my tacoma and also because of $$) as such i'd like to keep it looking decent.

Anyone have any ideas?
thanks
RC

You could get it buffed out..

Personally, if it got scratched one a rode you drive, it will probably get scratched again later..

When i first got mine, i remember how paranoid i was about scratching it, but after time, you really start to not care about the paint, body soo much.
