firstly, you can polish paint protection. Scratch x will do more harm than good on a dark coloured paint job when applied by hand. what you need is a nice glazing polish.
it is difficult and time consuming getting those fine scratches out by hand. the use of a machine buffer is essental if you want a professional job but you need to know what you are doing as you can do more damage to the paint.
If i were you, get some meguiars swirl remover, apply it by hand then get some meguiars NXT next generation tech wax and apply it by hand also. use microfibre cloths to wipe off the polish. Expect the job to take 3-4 hours for it to be done properly.
how's your scratches going? I find that if they are not too deep, you can mask your scratches using a good wax. I used Meguiar's NXT Tech wax on my scratches from the cats and they were hidden very well!
From memory reagon used a cutting compound when polishing his car - causing the scratches. I wouldn't stuff around trying to fix it - sure try Scratch X and NXT - but if that doesn't work take it to a professional.
yfin, do you know how bad the paint has to be before the pros resort to reapplying the clearcoat? How much would that cost for the bonnet, for example?
so if you got paint protection on ur car.. you cant polish it ? im kinda lost.. and if it does have paint protection.. how long does it take for this protection to wear out/off ??

I had a stone hit 2 days after I got my Euro on the drives side just above the door handle pretty bad. I took it to my father in laws body shop they put some touch up paint, clear, then cut and polished it now unless I told you about it you would not be able to tell. I would recommend get a professional to look at it.
