Default Best product to remove scratches from wood interior console ie GS350

Have some fine scratches on the wood console of my GS350 and would like suggestions on a good product to remove them. See pic below. Would ScratchX be a good product to use on the wood console?

The wood trim is actually clear coated. Treat it as you would any painted surface. A mild to fine polish with a rotory will do the trick rather easily. You can even throw on a coat of your favorite wax or sealant afterwards.

That Plast-X works great. I recommend it.

I'll have to try this out. Too many swirl marks on my wood grain from daily use/driving and pets.

I use the acrylic scratch repair kit . You can get it at Walmart in the car section. I also have paint scratch repair kit from the same company. Forget the name but I know its German

I suspect most products with very fine abrasives like have been suggested will work. If you happen to have some Zaino AIO (All-in-one Sealant with paint cleaner), I have had good success with that resolving small scratches on my interior wood trim as well.
