How to Safely Remove Fine Scratches from Your Car's Paint by Hand
Micro-fine, hairline scratches can often be removed by hand using a non-abrasive paint cleaner or swirl remover polish like Meguiar's Scratch X tm. It safely and effectively removes below surface defects like fine scratches and bonded contaminants from paint surfaces, while enhancing the paint's gloss. Unlike many of today’s overly abrasive scratch removing formulas, will not leave more scratches than it removes. The product is ideal for solving isolated paint problems and can even be used to revive a vehicle’s entire paint finish. If it is possible to remove a blemish or scratch by hand, ScratchX is the perfect solution.
The most common below surface defects, many of which can be removed by hand are listed below:
- Random, isolated scratches
- Cobweb-effect
- Buffer swirls
- Oxidation
- Pore imbedding stains
- Chemical etching
- Acid rain spots
- Etching from bird droppings
ScratchX is not a wipe-on, wipe-off product like a wax; it's more of a wipe on, and gently work it into the finish product. You will need a clean, foam applicator pad to work the product into the finish and a good quality terry cloth towel, likeMeguiar's ultra plus, or a microfiber towel, like Meguiar's Microfiber, for wipe off to make certain that your effort provides the desired result. It's important to note that using premium quality applicators and towels insures that you do not inflict any additional scratches back into the paint surface.
