Miracle Scratch Remover!
DO NOT believe the negative reviews! This cream is a miracle. Fortunately, I followed the advice of the guy who said just go at it with a lot of pressure, for a long time, until your arms fall off. It was true, and it worked.After 6 years of no scratches, dents, or dings, a neighbor kid scratched their bike across the front fender. Fortunately it was a clear coat scratch. It could be felt with a finger nail, but just barely. You don't want to be using this on a scratch that goes through the clear coat. In order to test, wipe some water across the scratch. If it mostly disappears until the water dries away, it is a clear coat scratch. If you can still see the line with the water on it, you are at the next level.Follow the instructions, put a dime size spot on a microfiber car cloth, and rub VERY VERY hard, perpendicular to the scratch, or in small circles. Do not stay in one spot for too long, keep moving. You will barely see any change at all. You have to keep doing it and keep doing it. And keep doing it. If it is a small area, you can do it by hand, for 5 or 10 minutes. I had an 8" scratch so I decided to take the risk and use a foam buffing pad on my cordless DeWalt drill. I applied the cream all around the edge, and attacked the scratch with the edge of the pad so that I could limit the area that was being affected. I worked back and forth 2 or 3 times, then gave it a rest. Did it again, then re-applied and went at it some more. Sprayed with some soapy water and cleaned it off every few times with another microfiber cloth, and dried with a 3rd cloth. Or sprayed with the hose to cool down the area. I used the firmest pad on the drill, and gave it a little pressure, until about when the pad edge was 1/2 compressed - no more, preferably less.I did this for about 30 minutes for more. So you can imagine that would be nearly impossible by hand. Just let the cream do its work, micron by micron. Be very careful to keep moving and don't stay on a spot too long. Inspect often. I got too enthusiastic at the end, trying to get the last bit, and I burned the clear coat in a small spot, which is now lighter that the rest. I don't think it went through the clear coat, just "burned" the finish.You can see in the photos, the scratch went across most the photo. In the "after" photo, you can see the small chip at the left end of the scratch, which was too deep, and the clear coat burn spot at the right which was the other end of the scratch... and NOTHING in between!! (The slight diamond pattern on the surface is a reflection of the porch lattice.) If you look at it really close, at an angle, you can see the slightest indentation line where most the scratch was, but it is very very very slight, and smooth, so the light will never catch it. Take it slow and patient to avoid the clear coat burn. Finish off by putting a few coats of wax to protect the area, since the clear coat is now a bit thinner in that area.If you are using this to remove all those fingernail scratches and marks behind the door handle, you can just vigorously rub the area a few times, and see instant results.

Say goodbye to clearcoat scratches and hello to sore arms!
After seeing a bunch of 'did not work' type negative reviews for this which I felt it did no do this scratch remover justice, I felt that I had to chime in . In short whether you just like to take care of your car or a diehard enthusiast this is one item every car owner needs to have at hand. If you are determined enough and put enough sweat and effort into it the ScratchX will remove almost any clearcoat scratch which has not penetrated the basecoat paint or hide it enough to make it almost invisible without causing damage to your paint. In fact I documented the step by step process how it virtually disappears a deep clear coat scratch (see pics) with enough effort and applicationsUSING IT & RECOMMENDATIONS- So you have a nasty scratch (from keys, jeans , road chip or a paint transfer mark) that you want to get rid of. Well this is the right product alright but here's the catch - It is going to take TONS and TONS of concentrated effort on your part ( i literally felt like my arms are going to fall off!) . And get rid of the scratch it will !- I *HIGHLY* recommend getting a soft terry towel cloth applicator( which I got from the dollar store) for this scratch remover as it works better when compared to a sponge applicator ( i found this the hard way) . The slight abrasiveness of the terry cloth along with the scratch remover work together better- After cleaning the area you want you work on thoroughly, You'll want to put *significant* pressure in buffing the paste perpendicular to the scratch surface in order to cut it down and bring it in level to the nearby surface . Keep in mind that this paste only works with clear coat scratches and paint transfer marks- As you can see from my pics I had a pretty deep clear coat scratch that was likely caused by jeans with a deep cut and sharp edges- It took me 4 painstaking applications and lots of sweat/effort but as you can see that the scratch progressively starts blending in until it is totally gone by the fourth application- Once you are reasonably satisfied wipe the area with a damp cloth to remove the remains , follow up with a paste wax to finish your surface- You might come across online articles and videos about using 3000 & 5000 grit sandpaper for removing deeper scratches .. However I did not feel comfortable using sandpaper on my new car . And you can definitely remove deep scratches with a terry applicator and this paste alone - Just that it is going to take a boatload of effort and sore arms ....but bottom line it does get the job done! I have used it to remove lots of nicks, scuffs and chip marks all around my carFINAL THOUGHTSI couldn't be happier with the results I got with the ScratchX , it is almost like magic. Granted that you might loose your arms in the process :) but it WILL remove that scratch on your ride that's been bothering you !!! Highly Recommended for every car lover !

Nice shine. But..
I loved the shine that this product left on my SUV. Easy to apply. But as far as removing light scratches, it didn't work for me.

My opinion is the product is a Polisher that does refresh the paint.
The product feels like a fine grit polishing compound. I tried it by hand, I tried it with a polisher. The scratch is better than it was, very polished but not completely gone. Thus my rating.
