I have used Turtle Wax color back on my last truck to spruce it up when i traded it in. It did not do a great job on the scratches and had ro resort to Scratch X and 3M ultra fine rubbing compound to get rid of my AZ pin stripes. (cactus + Mesquite scratches)

Depending on what products you already have on the paint (wax, polish, dirt, et cetera...) maybe using some Dawn liquid soap then a clay bar (Meguiar's California works just fine) might help with the scratches. You'd be really surprised how much can be taken out after stripping off what wax/polish is on there and then just re-doing it. If that's the case then I would HIGHLY recommend using Zaino to polish the car back up again...there is NOTHING out there that can touch it for the money IMHO. |

the one that comes with the "stick" that you use to fill in the nicks didn't work at all for me. but i bought some normal wax that was colored black and it worked great covering rock chips on the hood of that car.
philip: did the hyundai last 3 weeks or the wax? |

I used it on a black car, and it worked. Anything else, who knows?

IT doesnt work well at all, you'll probably need some good buffing coumpound and a little time to work. |

Has any one ever used this stuff, and does it work? I have a lot of small scratches from the car wash. Thanks. |
