Default Meguiers 'Ultimate Compound'

Has anybody used this and whats your input ??

Or is the 'scratch x' a better option ??

Will be using via hand and not buffer and for removing a scratch thats not deep just really marked the surface but is the full length of a big bastard black range rover sport

Im a Auto Glym user mostly but the super resin just isnt removing it enough and looking for something with a bit better cut ( I have done a few samples on the rear door of the motor but would just like something that cuts a bit harder but is pleasent to use) ......... Im not into using G3 as its fookin horrid stuff and the big bottle i have is never touched

Cheers for any input

Hi mate.

I would use scratch x. Used it before and its good stuff.

Another good option for not much money is turtle wax colour magic polish.
It fills in the scratch so when you polish it back up the scratch disappears.

Scratch 'x' sounds best for this job.

I tried Ultimate Compound by hand and I worked it in for quite a while and it still caused holograms.
It's a great product via machine though

I've used Megs Ultimate compound on a few cars and I've found it to be a good (if fairly aggressive !) product. I used it with a sonus foam cutting pad and I've never had any problems with it what so ever and I've used it on various paint finishes from soft to rock hard !
