Fixing scratches

[DylanVK]

Noticed a deep scratch in the rear in the rear quarter panel area of my wifes Chevy Equinox... decided it was a great time to see the upper limits of what our new polishes could do. This was a scratch deep enough to catch my nail so I didn't go in with high expectations, figured I could minimize it, but may not totally remove.

Paired up our Cutting Polish with a microfiber pads and my Rupes - I'll let the picture tell the rest of the story:



SCG Pro polishes, pads, and machines coming soon!

Come on put those polishes out!

So is it totally gone?? Hard to tell from last pic. Did it leave any haze?

Very nice, had a very similar experience, all good!

Looking forward to seeing the entire system with pads, etc.

Scratch is totally gone - the only evidence it was ever there is a small dimple/dent where whatever caused it initially hit. I suspect a shopping cart or something based on where it was at and how straight it was, so a small dent would make sense. I'll have that PDR'd later and never know it was there.

No detectible haze left behind - this color is nice for a few reasons, but mostly b/c its so heavy on the metallics that it hides things well. I think if this were straight black paint I'd be doing a follow up step with our prototype finishing polish and a soft pad, but as it stands now the 1 step was all it needed.

Looks great!! Your new polishes worked great on a few scratches on my buddy's transformers Camaro last weekend! Going to try them on some bird drop etchings on my fiancé car this weekend I'll be sure to get pictures this time!
