Default Scratch removers?

Alright I have done some research and have used a few "scratch removers" but am still wondering. Has anyone tried "Quixx" scratch remover?
It was the top rated product from consumer reports for acually removing the scratch, I orderd some and will be posting pics soon.

I've used Meguire's and Mother's scratch removers. Both of those companies haven't done me wrong yet.

Let us know how the Quixx turns out.

Sorry, pics didnt turn out.
The Quixx does work, small scratches and scuffs it works actually very well. I had a large scratch and probably hoped more from the product than it was actually intended to do, so I was a little dissapointed. The next day I took it after a couple shallow scratches that my 3M rubbing compound wouldnt get rid of and it did the trick.
No-one at work noticed the scratch I used the Quixx on, untill I pointed it out, so it does work eaven on noticible (from 5 feet) scratches.
All in all, I'd say it does what it says its intended to do. Its a 2 stage product and the second part (the buffing) really impressed me. My only complaint is the amount of product for $20+shipping.
I'd probably stick with Mothers.

I saw it (Quixx) at an auto parts chain store the other day. The package I saw had two tubes in it. But one tube I believe was for different paint finishes, like gel coats on boats.

It seemed kinda expensive considering the size of the tubes. The claims on the outside of the package seemed to be the same kind of claims made by every scratch remover. Only difference seemed to be this was imported from Germany.

I think I'll stick with Mother's and Meguire's.

Yup, live and learn I guess.
Just like I've always lived by the "there is no mechanic in a can" motto, now I know there is no easy/cheap scratch remover. Mothers and Mcquires work just as good as that expensive stuff, and you get a lot more for your money.

I sell it at my work for 13 dollars for the kit. I sell more of it then anything else, so according to consumers, it works really well.
