Meguiar's Scratch X
 
Has anyone ever used the Meguiar's Scratch X before? I have some small scratches and swirls I need to get rid of and bought this stuff today. Is it any good?

Try it with a good folded terry towel or a wax applicator. It's not that strong so it might be suitable for what you want. Depending on the depth of the scratches, it may not do much for those though.

I do find it relatively expensive for the size though. On the other hand, it smells nicer. :D

Haha, well at least it smells good.

Thanks for the input. I have a lot of little surface scratches that aren't that bad but annoying on a black car. Hopefully this will help get rid of some.

what you need to try is meguiars swirl remover, my bro has his own detailing business, that is why i know about this stuff.

By hand, swirl remover is probably just a big waste of time and sweat. You really need something with a little more bite to it to get anywhere, unless the swirls/scratches are very light and superficial. If you were to do this with a polisher though, that's a whole different story.

I left out the part about the buffer...sorry

On top of that, you are definitely going to need to follow that with another polish to minimize/eliminate any hazing from the Scratch-X.

Thanks for the info guys. I'll tell you how it goes when it gets a little warmer here.

By the way, Josh, Aruba was soo nice. I really realize how much Northeastern winters suck.
