[@joesixpak4340]

So, I did a LOT of research before attacking the 1 foot long "light" scratch on my cars fender. Based on PF's review, I bought Meguire's Ultimate Compound for $12 at Harbor Freight,. I applied 6 small drops to a "wavy" foam applicator. Installed the applicator into a electric drill. Taped off the area I was working on, and ran the drill at about 1,000 rpm with moderate pressure - letting the applicator "do the work" Made sure the pad didn't go dry, wiped area off with a clean micro fiber towel, and after about 7 minutes the scratch was gone. Thx Project Farm Dude!

[@ashkebora7262]

The pacing of cutting the videos nearly as fast as you're reading the instructions aloud is actually kindof awesome! Extremely easy to follow and doesn't feel like stretching or wasting time. You even went over several products and their packaging in less time than some go over a single product! I hope other viewers are liking it, too, because lots and lots of products are missing nice, concise examples of use, let alone comparison.

Awesome, thank you!

[@Broken_robot1986]

9 products in 12 minutes is crazy. Amazing editing.

[@OS10100]

Just goes to show, don't ever think that the most expensive product is the best. It's just a brand banking on it's "reputation". These reviews are absolutely amazing and help the consumer pick a product that works as opposed to what it claims. Thank you PF. Appreciate your hard work!

[@ProjectFarm]

Great point! Thank you very much!

[@AnthonyClauser]

Yes. But the top 2 brand in reputation did the 2 best jobs. 3M products are always seem to do the best in their product segments. The only problem is sometimes they are the most expensive... Sometimes they are priced aggressively, like in this case.

[@blackcoffee730]

Great idea!

[@h4x724]

Gloveworks HD orange ones are the best I've found and I've tried probably 20 different brands. I've literally stabbed them with a screwdriver hard enough to leave a bruise on my palm yet the glove stayed intact. I've caught them on sharp corners, cotter pins, etc and they hold up really well. The other huge benefit I've found is that even covered in grease you can still maintain a strong grip on tools, components etc and they clean up easy with just a paper towel, no tossing them once they get greasy like my old go to brand the Raven nitrile

[@leamsi4ever]

@@Jack-yl7cc true but people without basic tools aren't the kind to do DIY repairs like this, they will just pay someone else to do it.

[@Aubreykun]

Usually I'd recommend this order: Quality rotary tool, Jig Saw, Drill, Angle Grinder, Router. For most basic small DIY tasks the rotary tool will be more than enough as a single go-to power tool. Small paint scratches can be buffed out pretty fast with the high RPM and proper bit. Of course, buying the right tool for the job is important so really if you have scratches and fade as bad as the tests, get a nice corded drill.

Personally out of my experience, the formula one Scratch Out is utterly useless. From what I've used, meguiars Scratch X is best.

It's probably not wildly relevant to this discussion, but the ScratchX2.0 really is a different product to the original ScratchX. The original used to be recommended for guitar finishes, but the 2.0 added silicone oils to the product, and that's apparently bad news for (future) finish repairs.

I was also disappointed by NuFinish and had similar results. If you ever get a chance to test some pro level stuff, there's Farecula (I think it's British). That stuff is phenomenal in my experience.

I tried that carfidant one for my swirl marks on my Ford and thought it was going to be a good product due to all the good reviews on Amazon but once I opened the package for it I saw that it had an advert saying if you left a good review on amazon they'll give you a free product. I guess that's why it has great reviews since when I tried it I got the same results as Farm did.

[@AlGoYoSu]

Can confirm many products from Amazon have similar material included

[@LayerZeroDesign]

Should contact Amazon on that one. Pretty sure that's "buying" good reviews and against TOS.

Quixx scratch remover from Walmart, I should say better then these

[@LayerZeroDesign]

@@TheOmegaGamer100 That's the point and is exactly why it is not allowed by Amazon. People want free stuff, but people want good products and reviews are the primary way many people choose products on Amazon. Think about it, you got lulled into buying a shit product by a false sense of security from positive reviews that were bought and not earned. Now you think well fuck it I want my free stuff so you just give it a 5 star or whatever and call it a day and on and on it goes. Not even mentioning the fact that paint repair isn't rocket science but with today's world the shit is snake oil to your average Joe.

[@django1]

I freely admit I did not watch every minute of this video, I thoroughly enjoy his efforts and I'm glad that he does this. One thing you absolutely must keep in mind when using any compound is how much you apply. Apply too much and all you're doing is gliding across the top of it without really getting to the paint or clear coat. Most compounds are much more effective when they are used in a very thin layer and agitated until they start to dry

[@clean1566]

I was quality manager for one of the largest boat manufacturers, and we constantly used 3M products for fiberglass restoration, and cleaning. They actually saved us a ton on time, because they worked that much better than their competitors. That said, I have Meguire's products in my detailing locker. Went from fiberglass to metal.

Deep scratches like those from getting keyed will never be fixed with a rubbing compound or polish. Deep scratches need filled plus/or wet sanded, then compound and polish.

For years I swore by TR3 to take out blemishes, light scratches, paint and rubber scuffs from other cars and poles, etc. Would love to see how this compares. These days though - Mequiar's Ultimate, with a circular drill foam pad attachment set from Harbor Freight. Used to use 3M and DuPont rubbing and polishing compounds, Meg Ult is vastly faster and better. Same exact setup works to restore headlight plastic!

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the suggestion.

[@jameshinckley781]

Do ceramic coatings, see how much they can restore or shine things up, how resistant they are, and if the amount of money you spend really matters or if they are all virtually the same

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the video idea.

[@johndeerekid167]

This. Really wonder if these ceramic coatings are worth the money. I think their only real selling points are scratch resistance and they don't have to be reapplied for years. But for someone who doesn't mind waxing/sealing their car twice a year, are they really worth it?

When I owned my 20 year old m3 it had some light scratches and swirls around and the paint looked decent then I used the McGuires compound to remove all the deeper scratches I could get and actually used the nu finish to polish out all swirl marks, it turned out incredible and the paint looked as good as new!
