I've had this White MB for about 3 weeks now and have been very careful with it, but I noticed there are thousands of tiny scratches all over the front(where the Apple Logo is). Don't know where they came from but I want them gone! Is there any polish or maybe some wax that I could use on this to get rid of them?

+1 on that, same thing here on my White MB... There's gotta be some sort of polymer polish to fill the abrasions out there somewhere.

You guys should be able to use the products that are made for removing the scratches from the front of iPods. I've got a black one so the finish is a flat sort of black. The lack of gloss makes getting scratches out so much more difficult.

I've used a CD scratch removing kit to remove minor scratches on my white MB. It wasn't too good on deeper ones though.

I have a hard shell on my Macbook so I'm not sure if I have many scratches. I'm kind of afraid to take it off, heh.

Yea I was considering putting a protective case on my MB, but I have never been a fan of cases for electronics, I feel like it takes away from the intended design. None of my iPods have ever touched a case and my iPhone only has a screen protector. And none of them as many scratches as this MB which I take care of more carefully than any of the others. I'm going to have to try this cd cleaner I'm just worried because I don't want it to look worst.
