Novus Scratch remover. Piece of cake. If they are bad, and hand sander, buffer, works best.

Cool, way to go Reefing Madness, I had no idea they had such stuff, I've passed up a few tanks at yard sales because of scratches, now I know.

I agree 100% with reefing madness Novus is the best I have used with great success
although it wasn't on a aquarium, it was on a home brew video camera enclosure that I made.

I used a black&decker mouse sander with great results.
