I thought rubbing compound can put scratches in the car...

race glaze...i picked it up at an auto body supply shop. also, ive actually heard of people using a dab of toothpaste on a moist terrycloth rag. its got mild abrasives in it...but not too harsh.

I recently (about 30 minutes ago) used Mothers Scratch remover on my Infiniti to remove some light abrasions and some light scratches. Worked perfectly, then I followed it up with 3M Hand Glaze and then some Mothers Carnauba Wax.

Hmm, i'll try the Mothers. I'm not really looking to spend all day doing this. Thanks guys.

a good glaze will help to hide small scratches too. just seal it with a good wax [synthetics will last longer].

I swear by the mothers carabuna cleaner .. sometimes I put it on a few days after a wash... you gotta scrub h-a-r-d. Takes a few hours by hand, but well worth it.

I've used Meguiars Scratch X and its worked well for me.

I used that 'Scratch X' stuff on my truck...all it did was make the scratches less visible. I repeated it several times with terry cloth, pad, etc. Nothing changed. It was a cheap way to make the car less scratch looking, but after all that work, it wasn't worth the time spent to me.

couple coats of cleaner wax works wonders for me...especially old paint.

Scratch X is amazing. My car's paint looked like crap when I first got it. I used a whole bottle of this stuff and now my car shines!
