Default Meguiars Scratch-X 2.0

Anyone used it? if not i highly recommend it, it still leaves the scratches in the clear coat, which is self explanatory, but other than that you cant even tell the scratch was there, its amazing! lol check it out tho

this is what he's talking about, not the PlastX.

I can vouch for this product too. I used this by hand and it made a huge difference after a few coats. But I was using this to get that "cobweb" look most cars get in direct sunlight. If your trying to fix that, I recommed Meguiars SwirlX. It works better with less labor. But for actual scratches, ScratchX FTW

OK let me get this whole process down....

1. Wash
2. tires/rims
3. rinse car
4. chammy car
5. clay bar if needed
6. scratch x car if needed
7. swirl x if needed
8. wax
9. polish

would this be the correct order if you needed to use the scratch x?

BTW I went to wally world to get the mcquires and spent 85 on like every product i would possibly need.

anyway back to the reason for second post.... i parked far away from the doors, cause it is walmart, only me and a saab parked out there 4 spots apart. I come out and there is a 3rd gen, a 5th gen and a GXP all parked around me but spaced apart for the same reason. after her fresh bath Jill had a few admirers and I am really sure i sold the GXP owner on mcguires since i had pretty much every product they sold in my bag.

God I love my Gordon Edition "Jill"

i usually wash polish then wax, and whatever i cant get out with regular wax i use swirl remover then scratch-x where needed and then i wax again in the places that i did that. works pretty good, what does the clay bar do? i never really tried it out
