as much as I'm ultra paranoid about hand washing and drying, I still could never get any of the small hair line scratches out. I'm not sure how people look at their own car and just say to themselves "Oh well..." But I hate looking at them...

So I bought this thing:



Forget about trying to mess around with waxing/hiding scratches, or polishing by hand... This actually REMOVES scratches the right way. First use was a breeze, and I've tried tons of polish wax products over the last 20 years (I'm old)....

Could not be happier!

Strongly recommend the V34 for light scratch removal followed by some V38 then some blacklight glaze, and some 50/50 wax.

Looks better than the day I picked it up from the stealership!!

Torq kit with four 4 ounce polishes to try:

Chemical Guys - TORQ® 10FX Random Orbital Polisher Kit (9 items)

I also picked up some extra pads, and used the black finishing pad + V38:

Chemical Guys - Hex-Logic 5.5" Best of the Best Buffing Pads Everything Kit (8 Items)

Blacklight:

Chemical Guys - Black Light Hybrid Radiant Finish (16 oz)

50/50 Wax (this can be had around $45 at certain times of year...):

Chemical Guys - 5050 Limited Series Concours Paste Wax V2 Chrome & 2 Applicators

Lastly, the best deal, just get the green "work horse" towels... I picked up a ton of 'em, great for wax removal without unnecessary work!

Chemical Guys - Workhorse Green Professional Grade Microfiber Towel, 16" x 16" (3 Pack)

Best finish since I've owned the car, and I've tried just about every combination by hand imaginable...
