Quixx Scratch Remover(Product Review w/pics)

Well, after checking out the following post: got a scratch? this is what consumer reports found!
I decided to give Quixx a go... Her are the results.

Here is the product.




Here is the scratch before I touched it. I have no idea where it came from, but it's there, above the driver side door.



And, here is the scratch after I touched it. It is by no means perfect.



First, I used the two polishes as directed, and they did not change the scratch at all.

Second, I started again, this time using the wet sand paper then the two polishes. That is where I took the 2nd photo. I can't say I'm overly satisfied, but now you do have to look a little harder to see the scratch. I'm scared to go over it again as I don't want to rub off the clear coat.

i've used this product, there's 2 polishes and the really fine grit. i just used the polish and go over it for about 10mins, clean it off with microfiber. After that use the finish and rub it on till it dries and comes off clean. I get clean results, depending on how long your willing to keep rubbing on that scratch. It wont ruin ur paint no matter how hard u press but the sand paper will if u press too hard.

Well, I rubbed for about 2-3 minutes. I'm not willing to push it. The scratch is only visible now if you know where to look. So I'm not overly disappointed. I will definitely use the product again and again until I run out. I will probably try something else after that.

Someone scubbed my front bumper on the driverside corner in a parking space im assuming. Im Alabaster silver and i worked on the scratches for like 30 mins and i barely got any improvement. My buddy does paint work so I'm gonna see if he cant cover it up with a very light coat.
