I emailed there experts and asked them this. "which is the least abrasive?"



#9 swirl remover

scratch x

Medallion paint cleaner

swirl free polish





their response: Technically, all of these products are non abrasive but use what we call

"micro-abrasives". The least aggressive of all of the products is the

Scratch-X.
 
That is probably why Scratch X works well by hand. In other words it is not as hard to break down. It does feel less abrasive.



Thanks
 
I've used both Scratch-X and #9 within the last two weeks and from feel alone, #9 seems less abrasive. Just out of curiosity, I put a dab of each on my fingers and rubbed them together and Scratch-X certainly feels like it has more grit than #9.
 
According to their abrasiveness index, #9 and Swirl-Free Polish are less abrasive than Quick Detailer (the cleaner/wax, not Quik Detailer the consumer version of Final Inspection). I would think Scratch-X would need to be a little more abrasive than that just to do what it is supposed to do. I mean, it seems like common-sense would dictate that #9 and SFP would be less abrasive than MPPC and Scratch-X (S-X?). :nixweiss

It's like going into Home Depot....don't do it unless YOU know what you want and need.

If they're visible scratches here and there, use Scratch-X, if they're swirls all over the car, use #9.... :nixweiss
