Not for deep scratches
Sunday, September 20, 2009
Does it work? yes and no
I just use the first formula cream on any scratch, because it does the job much quicker than 2nd cream, and then use 2nd cream to clean the mass first cream made. Works like a charm.
One thing, you have to really put pressure on the noticeable scratch to remove it.
Anyways, this isn't some scamming product you see on informacial, I'm pleased with the result.

with some effort it can remove most scratches
Thursday, August 20, 2009
NOT BAD FOR THE PRICE
The scratches I describe as severe are similar to a key scratch. Overall I was satisfied with this product, but if your scratches are deep, then you will need to visit your local body shop, but for the minor stuff, this is the best of the bunch that's out there, I've tried many, and compared to this, they don't compare. For 14 dollars you can't go wrong.

Remove fine scratch beautifully, only improve deep scratch
I have rather deep key mark (show primer) and a few fine scratch on my new blue car. As it said on the directions if you have deep scratch you need to get the match paint for it. so we went over to Wal mart and get one of those 5 dollar repair paint that come with a small brush and ball pen in same bottle (they come in several known brand and color such as TOYOTA , FORD, GM, etc;) I also saw the same products at Kregen too.
First i wipe clean the surface with wet cloth and then very lightly wet sand to smooth it up with the sand paper provided it in the kit then wipe clean, The sand paper is 3000 grid which is very fine and did a good job for it's purpose. I like it much better than the 2000 grid one they sell at automotive store. Only if they give you more than just a few strips i will be alot happier.
Then I use the brush side to paint on the bigger scratch area and use the ball pen for finer line. Let dry for few hours. And to make sure i really fill those scratch well I re apply the paint and let dry.
After the paint completely dry use wet sand to very gently sand the excess paint off ( this part scared me the most because they said it very clear not to expose the primer, So take your time and be very gentle). When you are done with sanding the scratch should feel very smooth to the touch. It still look very visible but after i use cream no. 1 (buff hard) it look better so i decided to do it again twice. After 3 applications of cream no.1 and finished it with cream no.2 the scratch almost disappear. I still can see it a little but i know where to look for it. It does not take away the scratch completely but did improve and lighten alot. I think it's reasonable enough for it's price. If they sell this for 100 dollar then i will expect much better result.
As for fine scratch i have to admit that it works like magic. All i need to do is clean the surface, apply cream no.1 and make sure to let it sit then buff buff buff hard! , Cream no.2 give it super glossy shine. The scratch are completely gone. I was very happy with the result.

Quixx Paint Scratch Remover Review

Quixx paint scratch remover AWESOME!!
Well, it takes some circular rubbing- by finger tip or thumb tip inside the cloth they provide- and you might tire your arm out a bit, but just follow the instructions and the moderate scratch will magically DISAPPEAR! My paint is metallic, so I thought it won't work....WRONG. I think a really deep scratch can't be treated, but my scratch appeared as a thin white line along a brown metallic door and side panels. You may need to do it for 1-2 minutes on the first tube, then wipe with wet towel and dry, then apply the buffer tube #2. YOU SHOULD ONLY WORK ON ABOUT 4-6 INCHES AT A TIME. Sand paper is provided for deeper scratches, which I didn't have to use....just follow instructions. Well worth $20 including shipping....!!!
This is a super product for these scratches!! Major home run for the manufacturer in Germany!

Great help for the do it yourselfer

Amazing product
The instructions were very simple to follow and the results were
excellent.
The only critisim I have the sand paper that was suppose to be enclosed
was not. It didn't matter since the scratches were not that deep.
I recommended the product to my co-worker who also purchased it.
Thanks for a great product

Works as advertised
For the reviews that have given this product a low rating, its mostly likely because they have not be aggressive enough in their scratch polishing. A little more pressure and elbow grease will get the scratches out.

Outstanding!
After patiently working away with the wet & dry, I had removed the visible paint residue, and I evened out the paint, working in small circles with the sandpaper and using plenty of water.
Then, on with Quixx 1, again rubbing in small circles. Then wash off and do the same with Quixx 2. I'm not kidding, apart from a couple of spots in the bumper I had to touch up, the ugly wing & bumper looked like new. Great stuff, and it only took me just over 30 minutes. A small scratch must only take a couple.

Great product!
Friday, July 10, 2009
Awesome
This is well worth the $15 to get rid of scratches instead of just filling them. I would recommend this to all my friends!
Thursday, July 9, 2009
Works well
I've used a number of other products on vehicles I have owned in the past. Trying to remove ugly spots from those cars usually resulted in the area looking worse. The product used was either too powerful, I rubbed too long or the finish was dulled so much that fine polishing products would not bring back the gloss to match the surrounding paint. The end result was I made a mild blemish into a big ugly spot.
I was concerned I would repeat those mistakes again. It's been a long time since I needed to do some scratch removal, so I did some research and settled on QUIXX. The results are amazing. Buffer marks and scuffs that I had at best hoped would just be made less noticeable are completely gone. It took me about an hour to get all the spots I had done, but you will notice improvement within a minute or two of rubbing.
I highly recommend this stuff. It will not replace missing paint, but if the damage is limited to the clear coat this product will remove or minimize the blemish without the risk of doing further damage.

It worked flawlessly on dark color
Application was easy. You have to rub with polish for about 1-2 minutes, till you see the scratch is gone, then clean the surface and apply the wax. I used a terry cloth for rubbing. The scratch on my dark blue car was all gone in 5 minutes.
I also would like to try the polish sold in larger amounts for my dated car. You can feel that it is safe to use and still working. Help other custo

Quixx is very impressive
I bought Quixx after someone "keyed" my recently purchased Jeep Liberty. I was certain I would have to live with the obvious eyesore, but went online and found Quixx and the product reviews.
The effectiveness of Quixx is great. I am no handyman, so I needed something that didn't involve lots of complicated instructions. I used the two tubes of the product as instructed--repeated the process a second time using the wettened sandpaper (rubbing very lightly as written) and watched the deep scratch disappear. Full disclosure: if you get down on your hands and knees and look hard, you can eventually find the rekains of the scratch, but WOW--if you had seen it before, you'd be as happy as I am.
Got a significant scratch on your rig that is driving you nuts? Buy this product. Consumer Reports recommends it, and so do I.

Works as Advertised - Two Thumbs Up
I had just replaced a dented and scratched fender with a brand new fender from the factory and you guessed it...I scratched the new fender during installation.
Using Quixx I worked real slow and deliberate following the instructions to the letter. First used Polish 1 then Finish 2. It took 3 passes with Polish 1 then Finish 2 to remove the scratches and I gained confidence with applying elbow grease pressure with each pass. Each pass received greater pressure until I achieved the results I was expecting. I have to use a magnifying glass under direct sunlight to find where the scratches used to be...and this is on black paint with clear coat. (Scratches on black paint are the most difficult to make disappear.)
Ignore the reviews where people rated this product 3, 2, or 1 stars. Their low ratings are a disconnect in their expectation of how this product should perform or their perception of the severity of their scratch. They have perceived they have a "light scratch" but in reality they have a pretty deep gouge that probably needs to be sanded an painted.
Quixx has a web site that describes the types and depths of scratches you can treat, how to use their product, and what to expect as results. Their flash demos and video on using the product are very informative. The graphics on scratch geometry through clear coat, paint, primer, and down to metal will help you understand what is fixable and what may not be fixable with their product.
The scratches I repaired apparently were limited to the clear coat layer of paint so I was very fortunate and achieved stellar results. If your scratch reaches the paint layer you will probably get good results. If the scratch is deep to the primer layer then you will most likely need a different and more expensive solution. Think about it....your paint is yellow and your primer is red. This product will not make the red primer turn yellow to repair your scratch if the scratch is all the way to the primer.
I highly recommend this product for minor scratch repair or reducing the ugliness of more severe scratches.

Works very well indeed - Very satisfied - Requires effort
However, I was still bothered by the scratches. I started to research scratch removal and within a few days I'd covered a lot of the scratch market products. Then I stumbled on QUIXX acrylic remover at a local chain auto store which piqued my curiosity. But before I even used it, I researched further and found the QUIXX paint scratch remover. This looked remarkable and I wasn't sure if I really believed it and the company's talk about "plastic deformation" technology. But I bought that too despite its relatively hefty price tag of about $17.
As I write this review, I have applied the QUIXX paint scratch remover with great success. Yesterday, I rolled up my sleeves and went to work in my usual dedicated amateur fashion. I've never restored anything, least of all paintwork on a vehicle, but I take much care of my vehicles and I am persistent and careful in general. I applied the QUIXX exactly as instructed. After 7-10 minutes, I was done and stood back. And I was disappointed as heck! Those scratches remained as visible and prominent as ever. What kind of joke product was this, I asked myself?
I nearly gave up right then and there. But then it occurred to me that since these were mostly real scratches that I owned, i.e., they were NOT paint scratched from somebody else's vehicle as I had initially suspected, maybe I should re-apply the stuff and work it through once again. I'd read about folks using compound removers and polishers repeatedly over a single area who had great success. So I started over.
I repeated the procedure and stood back again after another 7-10 minutes. I wasn't sure if I detected a difference but somehow the scratches appeared to be thinner. They were still visible and as long as ever but they were now less "angry" and less evident, just slightly so.
I went through 4 more re-application cycles over the next one hour and when I was finished, blow me down if the entire side of the vehicle didn't look nearly brand new. At this stage, the scratches are 90% gone on the driver's door and about 75% gone on the front left fender. And I mean "gone" as in disappeared--pretty much vanished.
There were some scratches (there were probably 6-8 scratches or scratch areas I worked on in total) that did in fact disappear as I rubbed them for the very first time. You could actually see the mineral gray clearcoat finish "bleed" into the scratches as I wiped over again and again and again, just as instructed. This deformation technology was working before my very eyes as I applied the stuff. I was impressed, indeed, fairly amazed.
No heavy rubbing with heavy abrasive compounds. This was repeated rubbing with a bit of effort and focus, rubbing and rubbing and rubbing systematically, but not with heavy duty muscle power. I was using the vehicle's own existing paint to re-finish the scratched areas.
I shall re-inspect the SUV later today and re-apply as required. But I am satisfied that this has already saved me hundreds of dollars, if not more, in professional touch-up and refinishing work. I bet I would have been quoted for re-spraying the door and fender. So the product has paid for itself many times over even by now. I am sold on the product and very pleased.

it save me a lot of money when returning MY LEASE!
just wanted to share this because it really helped me
soon my lease was going to be over and i was worried about the fees that could be applied for how the car looked at first glance.. I did some research online on possibilities for making my car look better and I caught up with the consumer reports article and its rating of #1. basically I used it in many different visible scratches and my car shined like new! QUIXX really saved me a lot of money on the wear and tear charges and if I would have decided to re-paint! THANKS - I highly recommend this product!
