I have detailed cars for quite a while and there is nothing that will "remove" the scratch. If the scratch is just in the clear coat, you may be able to buff it out using a buffing compound which moves the clear coat around to minimize scratches. If the scratch is into the paint and there is paint removal, you may be able to use the same method, but you chance burning the paint if you are not experienced. the best way would to have it professionally repaired, or you can D-I-Y with some touch up paint (make sure you get the exact color) and a buffer to help blend the paint. Do not use too much pressure, or a dry pad because you will risk burning the paint and making a small blemish a big eyesore.

never use brake fluid on paint as it will take the paint off!, if the scratches are all the way through the paint only a body shop can fix them by repainting but if there not clear through you might be able to take them out with a good polish and a orbital buffer.

NOT BRAKE FLUID!!!! that will eat the paint right off the car.... the only thing you can do if the scratches are not through the paint is buff or use rubbing compound...

You should read the can the brake fluid came in. It says to not allow it to contact the paint on your car.

If the surface paint is penetrated, can't see a way without paint.
You're not talking here about removing a blemish.
Got a band aid? 'Swhat I use for my skin scratches.
