Probably a mixture of Scratch and Swirl Remover with Revive Polish.

I've heard great things about these products...can they be purchased in retail stores or mail order only?

I have not found in one in the Tampa Bay area that carries them. I simple order mine online directly from the Adam's web site. You pay the shipping, but they get their products out as soon as you order it. I normally have it in about three days.

I've recently switched to Adam's products and they're the best I've tried to date (including Zaino). The DVD that came with the kit is full of neat tips to make the application process easier.

He used the Swirl & Haze Remover and then went over top of that with the Revive Polish.

It worked for mine!

Sorry Jr.Fan, somehow I missed your questioned to me! I do apologize.

Adam used one of his microfiber applicators and spritzed it with the detail spray and put a small, dime size amount of the Scratch and Swirl Remover and hand rubbed out the scratches. He then rub the spot with a little Revive Polish and the two scratches were gone. It did not take more than a minute for him to do.

Well, this convinced me that I was a little behind on my detailing of the '01. So yesterday, I claybar'd the '01 Vert, which is Navy Blue Mettalic and really shows surface scratches, in preparation for a total detail. When Adam's reps detailed my Z06 they combined the Scratch & Swirl Remover step with the Revive Polish step, which I thought was great. Anything that will speed up the process. They use the PC random buffer and used 1/3 S&S with 2/3s Revive and that turned out nice. So, I hand rubbed the same combination and it could not have taken me more than 1/2 hour to do. This morning I will go over the entire car with the Buttery wax and she will be done. It should look great, it already is looking beter and I have not waxed it yet.

Sorry, that I missed your post.

Rich
