A decent product if you want to do it by hand. It takes several applications per panel and takes lots of time.

Better off with a PC and some polish.

AGREE........It ok

[roadrunner1659]

but in the long run if your a person that wants to keep the scratches away would this be a more practical approach to polishing so that you dont quickly eat up the clear coat?

i can easily polish with a buffer but i just want to know if this is a good secondary method between polishing with the buffer...as to keep the intergrity of the clear coat?

thanks!

Go over the whole car with SCRATCH X?? thats a lot of work in my eyes,

why not use a dedicated swirl remover?? and buff, then polish

why scratch X ?? I really don't think it's for the whole car...but for small discrepancies, besides that Scatch X is pretty abrasive.

(do you mean like a swirl remover applyed by hand? or actually using a buffer to polish?)

If you properly use Scratch-X it will take you 6+ hours depending on the car/truck.

Have you felt Scratch-X? It's pretty abrasive, you can feel the "sand particles" in the product.

You would be MUCH better off getting a PC, and one of these products.

Yes! a swirl remover, if you have a buffer with the correct pad?? go for it, then polish by buffer and hand wax or seal, better than by hand with SCATCH X, how bad is the car??
