Best scratch removal product for a black BMW?

Hi gang,

Now that summer is here, I am seeing a lot of scratches on my black 2020 430 Grand Coupe. I know we are all OCD as f*ck here, but I wanted get people's opinions on scratch removers.

It seems the common products are as follows:
- Meguiar's ScratchX 2.0
- NuFinish Scratch Doctor
- Turtle Wax Repair and Renew
- Mothers® Scratch Remover

Meguiar's seems to have the highest reviews, but I am terrified of applying this on my new black car.

Any thoughts or suggesstions?

Derek

Sounds like you’ve got swirls you want to remove. With swirls they often cover the whole car so if you’re ocd about them you’ll need a DA polisher or take it to a detailer. Try autogeek.net for advice on swirl removal. Suggest you consider a ceramic coat as well. Prices are a lot more reasonable compared to years ago.

If you've never used such products or did any paint correction why don't you hit up the guys at Carzilla since they are local to you. I believe they have workshops, etc.... If the entire car is swirled up, you are better off using a dual action buffer with polish, or pay someone to do it. You will not be disappointed.
