Default Amazing scratch remover

The best scratch remover I have ever used. Turtle wax Precision Platelet. I had scratches on my C7. Scratched paint and black shiny spoiler. I have tried, polishing compound, scratch remover, and others over the years nothing works like this stuff. It's a one step process. I used a random orbital polisher. Even the black spoiler looked prefect when I was finished. For surface scratches it takes only a few minutes to completely remove the scratch. Of course the deeper ones take longer. Most other scratch removers leave micro scratches behind that are hard to remove, not this stuff. I had a 15 inch scratch on my Focus door for a year, it is gone. I wish I had taken a picture of that one. I will post a scratch on the trunk.

That is awesome, thanks for sharing. I’m going to try it on my ‘66. The hardtop made some scratches on the rear deck and I tried several products that just didn’t get them all off.

I think it would also work on a car with swirl marks. The surface when you are finished is very shiny.
Like I said,,, if you can feel them with your finger nail it will take a lot more time. I count, one potato, two potato, three potato, all the way to one hundred, and then check, repeat.

Make sure you use a very soft fuzzy polishing pad.

I will be interested to hear how it works for you.
I wish I could have tried it on my 68.
