are both popular options for ipods and plastic macbooks. however, i have no personal experience with either. if you have the aluminum macbook, disregard these suggestions.

Or get the same size bottle of plastic polish from your local hardware store for a fraction of the price.

If you're feeling brave then rub the scratches out with fine grade wet and dry paper, starting at 800 grit going down gradually to 1500 grit then work in the polish until nice and shiny.

If the OP has the aluminum MB that would be a bad idea. If these aren't actually scratched, just use water or some kind of cleaner. I use monster but it doesn't really matter what you use.

Yes, definitely don't do it if it is an alu case!!
