Carfidant Scratch Repair and Swirl Remover - Car Paint Scratch Remover & Restorer Kit with Buffer Pad - Polishing & Waxing Kits - Compound for Vehicles Paint Repair - 8.4 fl. Oz.

I am totally impressed with this product. I had some scratches on the side of the front bumper on my Tesla Model Y that weren't very deep, but definitely noticeable. Not sure if another car brushed against it or what, but there was one group of scratches about 2 inches and another about 1 inch. I was thinking about getting one of those scratch removers that are specifically for the Tesla, but they all seemed to be paints and I wasn't sure that I wanted to try paint. If the color doesn't match exactly, it might look even worse. I saw this product, read the good reviews, watched some video testimonies and thought that I'd give it a try. The product comes nicely packaged and with easy, clear instructions. The applicator was is stiff enough to hold up to the pressure you need to apply the product. The cream itself is white, a nice consistency and spreads easily. You just keep rubbing the product in to the scratches in a circular motion and when you see most of the product is wiped in, you wipe off the remaining product with a microfiber cloth and buff it a little. I was amazed to see that the scratches looked almost faded away. I waited 5 mins and applied another coat of the product and I couldn't believe that I could not even notice the scratches unless I was right on top of it. Before I could clearly see the scratches while walking pass the car in my driveway from 8 feet away. Now I walked pass and couldn't tell there were any scratches at all. I can tell they're still there if I look very carefully up close, but wow, what a difference. I would highly recommend this product.

This product really works. My car had several light rust colored scratches on the grey paint. I rubbed a penny size drop of this product on the scratches for less than a minute and they were gone. I was amazed. Unfortunately I didn't take a before picture. This really works for light scratches.

I used this scratch and swirl remover on a few light scratches and surface marks on my car, and overall it did a pretty good job. It’s not a miracle fix in one pass, but with a bit of patience and several rounds of polishing, the scratches became noticeably less visible and the paint looked much better. The compound spreads easily and the included buffer pad works fine for hand application. It also doesn’t have a strong or unpleasant smell, which makes the process more comfortable when you’re working on the car for a while. After a few passes, the finish started to regain some gloss and the surface marks began to fade. It works best on light scratches and swirl marks rather than deeper ones. Another positive is that once applied and polished, it leaves the surface looking clean and well protected. The paint had a noticeable improvement in shine and looked refreshed compared to before. That said, it does take some effort. You really need to put in a bit of elbow grease and repeat the polishing a few times to see the improvement. I probably could have gotten even better results if I had kept going, but my arm started to get tired after a while so I stopped once I was satisfied with the improvement. One suggestion for the manufacturer would be to offer a version that works easily with a drill attachment or small buffer tool. Using it by hand works, but a powered option would make the process faster and much less tiring. Overall, it’s a solid product that can noticeably improve light scratches and restore shine. Just be prepared to spend a little time and effort working it into the paint.

I had some light scratches from some limbs/branches that I ran up against. I decided to try this product with not much hope that it would help. I have to say that it exceeded my expectations. These were light scratches, not at all deep. It removed most of the marks to where I cannot even tell where they used to be. I do have one more small area that I need to go over a second time with a little more pressure. This was easy to use and wipe off. May not work for deeper marks or scratches, but overall I am very happy with the product!

I had no hope that this was going to work. I scratched my brand new car backing out of a tight garage space. It actually worked! Scratches completely buffed out! Picture shows the worse of the 2 scratches - took me about 5 minutes total for both spots. I just kept saying “I can’t believe it!” because nothing ever works as it says!

It works when you first put it on but then after a couple of hours I could still see the small scratches.

This worked very well to get some small scratches out of my paint. It was easy to use and I’m happy with the results!

Carfidant only works okay. It really depends on the size of the scratch. I used it into two areas on my car: 1) for a scratch caused by someone opening a door and nicking mine and 2) where I brushed up against a concrete pillar. The scratch cased by a door hitting my door, it worked fine and it is hard to see the scratch. However, the scratch from brushing up against a pillar did not work at all. Maybe because the scratch was too wide and deep. The sratch varied from 1/16" to 1/8", and it did not help. The pictures show the result after application.
