Thumbs up
Guys, someone on my watch forum asked about this so I went back to my detail shop and made a quick how to for him. My watch forum is private but I greatly encourage anyone interested in scratch removal to register for two minutes and check this detailed thread with photos.

The best way to develop technique is to work these harsher products on surfaces that you can little about. That way, if you go to hard and gouge the surface you are not so concerned.

If you have a relative's car and they are less than concerned about their old clunker, volunteer to "detail it" for them!

Yeah, I'm another satified customer so I'm just going to stick with it. It probably similar to the Klasse' product in terms of reflective shine.

Zaino does it for me and you can waste (errr... spend ) just as much money on their full range of products. Obligatory mirror-like shiny picture here.
