Nu Finish Scratch Doctor

Does anyone have any experience with this product? I have a few light scratches to deal with on my new F-150. I searched but didn't see anything on this product in particular.

Thanks.

I got dog piled on another forum about ScratchX vs Megs #80....according to that thread, 80 works better than ScratchX.

I sure thought it was the other way around.
Let the games begin.

I have and use both and they work about the same but with the scratch-x you need to put some muscle into it.

Muscle? You mean #6 on the DA? If so, I got lots-o-muscles.

#80 and Scratch-X are kind of in two different boats though...

Obviously, one is a CONSUMER (A) product whereas the other is a Professional Line (M) product. This doesn't mean that the average Joe can't use #80 but, it does mean that they're kind of different...

One will remove a scratch in a more prevalent manner whereas the other will do some removing and more 'filling' of the problem.

S-X is more of a filler (although, it'll remove some too) whereas #80 is more of a remover than a filler...

That said, most of us know that there are certain times to use a filling product versus that of a removal product. Times like this are when you're dealing with already thin clear or if you're dealing with paint and you may not have the confidence/machinery/know-how to go after it from a removal standpoint.

In a nutshell, they're different and really shouldn't be 'lumped' into a single category.

The long and short of it is that Scratch-X is probably a very good choice for what you've described. Be patient with the chemical and follow the directions to the 'T'. It'll ultimately be a more economical chemical to use, it'll be easier to find (at all 'mart' stores), and it'll yield very good results by hand versus a machine -- especially if the problem is very localized.
