    Will ScratchX do it, yes. All in one day...no...

    Did I show you the video of how to use it?

    How to correctly apply ScratchX to remove swirls and scratches

    As you can see, it takes a fair bit of effort. If you try to do too much at once, you will not get good results. If you have all day, maybe you can get several panels done with resting in between.

    But as your arms get tired, your results will suffer, so dont try to do too much. Try to get some panels ScratchXed and waxed in one day, then do the rest over the next few days, or next weekend.

        I mean, you can try all in one day... but for 90% of people, after the second or third panel, their results will start to tail off, esp if the swirls take 2 or 3 applications to remove.

            M105 with a microfiber applicator would require allot less work. Do small sections at a time, 12 X12, check your work then do it again if you need too. What might take 3 or 4 applications with ScratchX might only take one or two with M105. Then add a coat of ColorX with some passion. Take a look at my posts in 'Working by Hand" I had great results with M105 on an 11 year old car with allot of swirls. Don't forget to clay first.

              M105 would be a great choice, not as easy to get as ScratchX but it'll require less effort from you to remove those defects.

                    Try the scratch-x. Do a panel at a time for the best results.

                        I would you Scratch-X first, like mentioned before and then finish it off with ColorX if your going to work by hand.

                        Read through these threads:
                        How To Remove Swirls By Hand
                        How to remove a defect by hand with ScratchX

                        ColorX isn't a real strong cleaner, thats why we are suggesting ScratchX and Ultra Cut Compound (#105) to get rid of the swirls on your car first.

                          See how well the scratch-x improves things, then use your color-x.

                            before :


                            After :
                            color x one time apply

                            color x two times apply

                            color x third times apply :


                            and after that i apply the whole body only 1 time apply of color X :







                            after that i spray the whole body to look at the water beading:







                            note : my front bemper and back and rooftop is not color x yet, i am too tired to do that maybe next time, i notice that my car still have little bit of swirls, can NXT wax cover it up???

                              Do you think the swirls are created before or after the car handed to you by the dealer?

                              If the answer is after, you might want to analyse what went wrong in your car washing process.
