Ok so I've been wanting to get all of the scratches that are in the clearcoat out! There are sooooo many different types of removal kits out there, but I don't want to waste money on something that doesn't work. So wat do you guys use? I know yall are the most reliable source! Thanks guys,and gals!

Claying doesn't remove scratches. It removes impurities on top of the clear coat. In order to remove the scratches, you need to use a polish (not a wax).

I use rubbing compound, but this requires paying attention to what your doing or you could ruin it. I clay it, then wax too

I've had great results with Meguire's Scratch X.

That being said, you HAVE TO let the polish do the work. DON'T PUSH HARD!
Just move it around on the surface with mild pressure. It takes some time, but works wonders.

After polishing, be sure to at a minimum wax the area to protect it!
