T-cut (compound) is normally used to remove light scratches but you’ll need to use a buffing/polishing machine as it’s very abrasive, if you use your hand with a cloth you’re likely to scratch the paintwork.
Polish is a fine abrasive that will remove scratches caused by the T-cut (compound) or when the lacquer looks dull.

A fuel filter is an element in a fuel line that screens out dirt and rust particles from the fuel, and is normally made into cartridges containing a filter paper. Fuel filters need to be maintained at regular intervals. If a filter is not replaced regularly it may become clogged with contaminants and cause a restriction in the fuel flow, causing an appreciable drop in engine performance as the engine struggles to draw enough fuel to continue running normally.

Engine a Maintenance and Diagnosis
Day 3 : Engine Smoke Diagnosis
The color of the engine exhaust smoke will indicate what the engine problem is;
Colour:
•Black Smoke.- Due to excessive fuel being burned in the combustion chamber this is caused by defective or misadjusted throttle body, leaking fuel injector or excessive fuel pump pressure.

•Blue Smoke: Indicates engine is burning oil this is mainly caused by oil getting into the combustion chamber either past Piston Rings or past Valve Stem Seals.

•White Smoke\Steam: This is normal during cold weather and it represents condensed steam. Every engine creates about 1 gallon of water for each gallon of gasoline burned.
If the steam from the exhaust is excessive then water or coolant is getting into the combustion chamber, cause maybe a defective cylinder head gasket or a cracked cylinder head.
