Just throwing a pic out there. First time using this product. Needless to say I will be investing in a orbital. The pad/by hand application is for the birds.

Did it work well for you? Looks good, but always tough to tell in pics. I am going to be purchasing an orbital polisher also.

It’s not bad. Pretty time consuming doing it by hand tho. I did 2-3 foot sections at a time and only let it stay on for about 3 minutes. It started hazing/setting up quickly tho. I’d prefer more of a “wetter” product to buff off. Not having a buffer and cutting pads it’s hard to judge the “scratch removal” capability. My truck only has 2400 miles on it and the paint is in excellent condition. I have a few light scratches that were removed successfully by hand. I have one scratch that I wasn’t able to remove. Maybe a cutting pad will do the trick.

It works good, I have a bottle. I will say this tho it tends to mask swirls. First go round with it on my Ram and it looked awesome! It wasn’t a month later and they were all back. I did the hand application too. I’d be curious to see it on a orbital! I moved on to adams and chemical guys. I’m almost 3 months in and it looks great. Your truck looks great!

I've used that as well as the polish with an orbital. Works much better with the machine. I did the area above the gas door on my truck by hand because the person that owned it before me must not have cared much about keeping the gas nozzle rubber thing from hitting the truck. It got the majority of the heavier scratches out. Still need to go over the whole truck with the orbital.

Yeah get a polisher and some good pads. Hand application sucks. I have a Porter Cable 7424 with all sorts of pads depending on the damage done. Had this polisher for years without a hitch. Sure there are better ones out there.

You start with one product then you end up with shelves full of different stuff. :D
