hello all, i own a 6 month old astra in star silver and some nice swine has scratched it with a supermarket trolley!
it is not too bad but noticable, any good polish that can be recomended? all i know is t-cut,colour magic, any others??.

A scratch from a supermarket trolley sounds like it won't be removed by polish. You could try T-cut or Scratch-X, but it might need a professional job using a rotary polisher. Or some bodyshop attention.
Can Dentmaster or similar do scratches?

Can Dentmaster or similar do scratches?
That's the sort of concern I'd look at, rather than expend lots time and effort on possibly making matters worse. Look at:

ChipsAway can deal with stone chips, scratches and and bumber scuffs according to a mailshot I received some time ago. Have not used their services myself, though.

In my experience, Colour Magic provides a very short term fix. Once the car is done it looks superb. A couple of washes later and it's back how it was.

meguairs scratch x is a safe to use mild abrasive...assuming you cannot feel the scratch with your finger nail you may be able to improve it with several repeat applications
the key to using scratch x is to get your back into and work the polish....its not a wipe on -wipe off product
