Get it buffed.. Scratches are always going to be there on a black car, no real way around it.

Once the scratches are removed, use a Mr. Clean Auto Dry to do the final rinse. No need to dry even with our crappy water here.

If that doesn't work, get a couple of gallons of distilled water and use that for a final rinse. Pure water= no need to dry
