When applying ScratchX one must simply make sure to fully wipe the product away after each go at the scratches and it will not leave any fillers. Just a more refined finish.

ScratchX isn't referred to as a filler except from people who do not know how to use the product properly.

Furthermore, a G105 does not exist...so I am guessing you are referring to the G110...which would be a better idea to buy than the G100 since it has about 25% more power and a sweet bale handle.

If you do get a G110 starting with Meguiar's M80 and M83 is probably the way to go.
Mike Phillips has never denied that there are properties in scratch-x that fill. Theres tons of ppl who refer to it as a filler on autopia, detailingbliss, etc. And to answer one of your questions on another site, High-line is my second favorite meter. But for the price, its hard to be beat. Ask Todd about those high end meters compared to this, I believe he owns one.

#9 is more effective by machine, but I don't think it will work as well as scratchX by hand.

Take a minute to read this: http://meguiarsonline.com/forums/sho...light=scratchx
Agree completely. the only reason no one is really digging your idea is because Scratch-x will take FOREVER and you won't finish your whole truck, i promise. I tried, ended up only doing the hood. with good results however. ((I asked this same question about a year ago)) haha
