Meguiars X Scratch Removal on NBP?

anyone try the above to remove the tiny hairlike scratches that appear after washing the NBP? I was wondering if this helps hid them. I have a few little scratches building up on the sideskirts that I want to get rid of.

I have NBP as was going to get some at the store on Saturday, I am just wondering if it is worth it as well. I have Meguiars leather cleaner and conditioner and that works awesome!

Meguiars Scratch X works great! I actually first hand buffed out about 50% of all my scratches, the ones I could actually buff, some deep scratches I will actually need a paint stick, as they can't even be machined about. Scratch is the most agressive Scratch remover I have ever used. Only 9.00 a tube too, get it and use it as directed. After I singled out individual scratches I then proceeded to do my entire car to remove swirl marks also. I did pretty good, better than any wax, including Zaino(which I think sucks to get rid of swirl marks, not worth money, get Meguiars). Zaino is damn good but their scratch remover is sub-par with rest of their products.

Just bought it for my RR as I have a few scratches and a nick that I used the acura paintstick to touch up (did not turn out to well)

Hopefully it works better than the zaino Z5 or else I am taking it to a detailer to get them buffed out.

I noticed he was saying after he washed the car. So what is the appropriate applicant to use in order to wash your car with. And also what is best to dry it with.

Everyone has there own preference but never take it through a carwash and be carful about who handwashes it. The dealer here used to handwash cars (now has a carwash) but they used the same dirty sponge over and over.

I used a cotton wash mitt but just switched over to a Microfiber wash mitt. Use 100% USA made cotton towels or Microfiber to dry a car. The towels are hard to find so I just switched to the Microfiber lastmonth and love it. So much better.
