Guaranteed to be the most effective way to remove fine scratches and swirls from automotive paint by hand, ScratchX removes light surface contaminants, oxidation and blemishes while it enhances paint color and clarity. ScratchX is not a "cover up" and will not cause additional scratches to your paint surface. For best results, apply ScratchX with an Even-Coat Applicator and remove any excess product with a Supreme Shine Microfiber or Ultra Plush Super Terry.
