How do you actually use ScratchX and get results??

I posted at the bottom of a thread by fox like last weekend or so but not one replied.

The way I see it you have two options:

a) Apply like wax, wait for haze and buff off.
b) Use like T-Cut and use elbow grease.

The instruction suggest option A which is what I did with very little (if any) results (looking for reduction in light scratches, swirlys etc).

People have posted here saying they have had good results with ScratchX so let in on your secret

You need to polish the scratches out, its not like a wax which magically melts the scratchs. IF there only light on a clear coat layer you should be quite successful

Yep its not easy going at all, helps to get some heat into it as well and really work it hard!

I find that helps too.

As for Scratch-X, no idea.

I find scratchX rubbish, it's just not abrasive enough, in fact sometimes I wonder if it's abrasive at all as it never seems to do anything.

A) will do nothing imo, you may get some results with B)

I find T-cut colour better, and normal T-cut for deeper scratches.

Or:

c) Combination of both

You need to rub it in to the scratch with some elbow grease, then leave to dry and buff off. Thats how I do it anyway, with decent results.
