Can i get rid of the scratches on my Macbook's screen?

Anyone who has a Macbook or any new computer with the "soft" and slick and shiny exterior knows that they get scratches. How do I get rid of them? I have a new Apple Macbook.

Wait a minute! NOT the screen. I said the screen and mentioned the EXTERIOR. I meant the exterior of the screen. This part where the light up apple logo shows. Sorry for any confusion.

Ahh, what would you call that part?

Lid springs to mind.

How about, "all those external parts that show when the Lid (it's that word again) is closed? Happy

Using Google and the term: "remove scratches from plastic" I found that Jewelers Rouge is high recommended.
This site has a bunch of stuff that could work for you.
