bro question, diba mas agressive yung scratch remover ng 3m vs. turtle wax rubbing compound?

I tried yung 3M.magaspang masyado.i used it sa old car ko before..may tumama kasi sa bumper ko nagka paint na white. Baka taxi nadatnan ko lang pag gising ko.natanggal yung mark but leave a small scratches also on my bumper nung ginamit ko 3M. May pagka sand paper ang texture nya.

May mga sachet sila in some stores. Kelangan mo kasi Fil muna then Sil.

thanks bro, ok nga kung may sachet at least matest muna
btw any ace hardware/sm branch in particular na madalas meron stock?

yup magaspang nga, nagamit ko ito couple of months ago doon sa kia, ok naman sya and nalinis talaga swirl marks and scratches. ang worry ko lang baka pangit kalabasan kasi black yung auto, kaya naisip ko rubbing compound muna or yung microtex nano nano

Rubbing compound is always more aggressive than Scratch remover. Rubbing compound cut fast so will remove defects and deep scratches easily. Rubbing compound is best applied by machine.

Scratch removers are used to remove light scratches and swirls. They can be applied by hand or machine. The product I use is Meguiar's ScratchX 2.0. FYI, you can also use it for the whole car as a polishing compound before waxing.

If you say that 3M Scratch Remover is more aggressive than Turtle Wax Rubbing Compound, I would tend to think that Turtle Wax is under-spec. But no worries, use whatever product you feel comfortable with.

thanks bro again sa reply.
btw my last move before giving up, microtex nanofil (step 1).

will use this once the carnuba i used wear out. :thumbup:

Hi, pwede po ba gamitin ang topcoat catalyst sa color coat? thanks!

way off topic.. look at the product sheets for both, see if one is prescribed for the other.

Plenty of choices. Pure glaze (and Polish with glaze) will fill in and hide those minor paint defects.
