Scratches Impossible to Remove.

Hey everyone, I just wanted to ask you all something. I have used everything in the car detailers aresenal to try to get rid of scratches on my car. Some of the stuff worked ok, but most didn't do much at all. I just finished using Zaino on my blue civic and the stuff made it shiny as hell, but the scratch remover didn't really get rid of the scratches on my car. Is it pretty much impossible to get rid of all the scratches on your car? Im very **** about my paint job, but im trying to get over the fact that I will probably always have alot of scratches over my car.

Hand compounding may be doing nothing, you have to use a machine on the paint. If you dont know how, bring it to a professional detailer and he will tell you how if possible the scratches can be removed...and it should cost over $50 to have it done....

There is a guy in NC who can go over your entire car and remove every swirl mark, I don't know what he uses but he dose the whole car for about $200. Kind of steep but it looks good

Pugs Rule!

depends on how big/deep the scratch is. i have 3m swirl mark remover and it works.. a bitch to use so i would recommend having an orbital buffer.
