Bruce Poage Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I've read several positive comments about using ScratchX to polish out a paint job. My practice in the past has been to used graduated series of sanding pads then buffed with wax. But I am always looking for new ideas. What are the thoughts as to what is he best scenario for using ScratchX or should it be used for specific finish problems. Thanks in advance for the ponters.

crazyjim Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 After sanding out I use Novus #2 to remove any scratches and then use The Treatment Model Car Wax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeMc Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Scratch X and Novus #2 are just about the same....I use them both with my lacquer finishes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjordan Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I want to keep the original as-molded body color on a Mercedes kit, but it had a few minor scuffs and a couple of scratches. Scratch-X fixed it in nothing flat, and resulted in a realistic finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shucky Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I gave up on the multitude of sanding pads, etc. 3 rubbings of scratch x and you'll have a mirror finish. Its fabulous stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewaskew Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Doe's it work good on enamel without messing it up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Most Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Doe's it work good on enamel without messing it up? As long as the paint is fully cured, you shouldn't have any trouble at all. I've used ScratchX on just about every type of paint and it has never let me down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
