it works well but I still think its more of a temporary fix like a glaze...it just fills the scratch in untill it rains or something.

Buy a PC orbital buffer and some polish to actually fix scratches

no it isnt, it is a microfinishing compound.

Yep, as long as nothing is gone through to the primer, it will rub it out, but only fine thing's like swirly's. You need more aggresive compound for anything worse.

It is Sarface is correct.
I used it yesterday and it made my small scratches vanish.
Meguiars definitely makes good products.

Nice! I just bought the orbital-friendly reformulated Scratch-X. Worked wonders on my mom's 2000 Mountaineer- significantly reduced the appearance of swirls. Goldmember gets it next...

lol...really?

I use it but I didnt think it was actually a compound since it works effortlessly.

I still would say get a PC or a rotary buffer if your serious about taking care of your paint.

I found some turtle wax rubbing compound in the garage yesterday while cleaning it out. Stuffs never been used so Im going to see how it works on a scratch I have on my front bumper cover.

Be very carefull with that stuff. Polishing compound is one thing, rubbing compound is another.
You'll have swirl marks from hell. Especially on a dark color.
