Thank you. Looked at your pics, your truck has undergone quite the transformation. Looks great.

As far as scratch removal goes, it depends on how deep they are into your clear coat or paint layers. A good carnauba wax can go along way if you apply a good amount of pressure during application and removal. They clay bar is designed to remove surface imperfections such as little rust spots from your rotors or specks of tar, etc. My trucks body has 270k on it and I pretty sure that the last time it was ever detailed was when it rolled off the lot new. Before the wax, if I ran my hand over the paint I could feel all sorts of rough spots, after a clay bar (Mother's product that comes with a detail spray to keep the surface wet while using it) and the wax, it is smooth as a mirror. Made a heck of a difference in the appearance. Since my truck is lighter in color the rust spots show up pretty bad but they are completely gone now. If you have a really deep scratch, some of those products (nu-finish) I have found to do an ok job but not necessarily as well on dark colors.

O ok gotcha...yea its mostly surface scratches that really stand out in the sun...I will give that a try this weekend of buffing it..I didn't really buff it I just washed it and then polished and waxed it like I said I'm new to this so I'm still learning lol. Thanks for the advice

I got one these a while back to use on some scratches on my wife's Escape, from a laundry basket mishap. It works pretty good for what it is. Walmart carries the other pads as well. For doing a whole truck it will take some time but better than by hand, OUCH!!!! I know i did it. PS - it works great with a cleaner wax for your boat.

Using it for what I bought it for, and the reason I saught a crew cab w/ 6' box, hauling toys. Wifes 08 Outlaw 525 and my (new to me) 89 KDX 200. Squeezed them both in the bed. My ATV is an 06 Predator 500. On the other side of my truck in the last picture is wife's new car. Just picked it up couple days ago. 05 Escape Hybrid. Needed something to offset the trucks mileage. 6 hours 1 way to get it! Its impressive how few I could find. 78k miles only. It got 31.6-32mpg on the way home, I got 18.6 haha
