+1, I Started using Turtle brand polish on my road bikes because it removes some of the small scratches and leaves a really nice shine. I tried Pedros Bike Lust, leaves a nice shine if the paint is in good shape to begin with, but doesn't do much to remove scratches.

For my MTB's I like to use DIRT. It covers up all the scratches and you can't tell when you add more dirt
