Hi.  I just purchased a 1994 Featherlite Aluminum 3 Horse Trailer.  The interior of the trailer is beautiful, but unfortunately, the exterior has been used and abused.  There are multiple light scratches all along the trailer length from the former owner driving it through trees.  These scratches don't look deep, so I'd like to try to buff them out or remove them.  Any suggestions on products or methods to get these scratches out?  I've found info about products like Alumabrite to brighten and clean the trailer, but have found nothing to help remove the scratches.  Any thoughts?  Thanks!

Thank you, but the trailer is aluminum shiny finish, no paint.  I didn't see anything about removing scratches from plain aluminum, only paint finishes.  I will try waxing however, as suggested in the thread.

Fine sandpaper and polishing compounds.
