T-Cut, get one that matches the colour of your car.

I reckon T-Cut is stronger. If not try some AutoGlym stuff. Look in halfords, they have all sorts of paint restorer.

My understanding is that T Cut actually takes off a very small layer of paint, revealing originally coloured paint from below.

Wax just buffs up the surface to make it look shiny - I think.

Autoglym super resin polish worked a treat at getting rid of those shadows underneath.
