Hi, I recently bought an NZXT Phantom 410 and there are some very light scratches on the front and top plastic panels. I would like to know if there is anything that i can do to remove these scratches. All of the scratches seem to be very light cause i cant feel it with my fingernails

Do you have a picture? If the pieces are painted, and you go through the paint with anything aggressive, you will have a bad day. If its a polished texture (shiney) you can polish out the scratches carefully. However if there is any sort of textures in the plastic you will take out the texture and probably make it more noticeable.

I would tend to error on the side of less aggressive first and see if it makes them less noticeable. Yes automotive stuff will work. Honestly I would try something simple like a regular wax (not a scratch remover) first, and see if that helps first. If it's better, I'd leave it alone. If it's not and you are determined to try something, they make plastic polishes for clear plastics, these are generally very gentle, and not very abrasive, and available at most auto parts stores, and even places like WalMart.

Example Amazon Link, you should be able to find this locally.

Again don't go crazy, the more you mess with it, the more likely you are to go through the finish, and do something that requires doing something like repainting.
