So this morning I decided to tackle the scratches that were on my Lexus that I just got. I only used a Meg's round foam applicator pad to buff out the scratches. I think it looks great!
Meguiar's UC:

I also decided to tackle the small scratches that were on the trunk by where the trunk release button is. On that I decided to use Griot's polisher with an orange 3' pad.

Pics were taken with my phone so nothing too crazy.

Great job Gio!! Those are nasty scratches by the door handle. UC with a foam applicator pad did a great job. UC is indeed an amazing product!

megs uc is a sleeper product and considering how aggressive it can be, it finishes down very well on many paints...

Thanks Marc! Yeah the front doors were the worst. The combo did awesome!

No. M6 is a cleaner wax and UC is a compound. UC is derived from M105.

I usually don't need more cutting power than what UC offers. I love the entire Ultimate line.

Soft paint can be very forgiving. ;) Nice job, nonetheless.
