Best products to remove scratches

Hello
I am about to DIY to remove scratches on my car. Since it's 14 years old, there are a lot of dings, scratches, and etc. Some areas like bottom front bumper, I need to take it to a shop to repaint it, but I want to get rid of small scratches included (keyed deep scratches) my own.
Could you guys suggest good products, and some advice or tips on how to remove all the scratches?

Thank you.

Have you looked at Meguiars Polishes? like a 105 ultra cut (for the bad spots) and then follow with their 205 Polish to shine it back up? You might want to watch some basic detailing videos online to see how to try this yourself. With an entry level random orbital polisher and the right pads these products work like magic.

I’ve had great results with both Meguiars and Chemical Guys compounds and polishes applied with a DA polisher. The secret is to have patience, use the correct pads and seal with a quality ceramic coating.
