Quixx Scratch Remover?

pnguyen · 08-01-2007, 12:23 PM

Anyone on e90post use this product yet? I was watching TV last night and saw a commercial for Quixx Scratch Remover and it looked legit. Just wanted to see if any other members have tried or had experience with this. Thanks in advance!

Sniz · 08-01-2007, 12:26 PM

might want to try the detailing forum for this one.

I haven't used it though, or heard of it.

OC Guy · 08-01-2007, 12:55 PM

Is it a car paint specific product?

theDude · 08-01-2007, 01:32 PM

I've seen this for sale in Bavarian Auto...so it's probably not too shady. Would be curious to hear others' experience with it.

apparently theres a paste u rub onto the scratched area and after u buff it, the scratch s supposed to be gone.

ejazbmw · 08-01-2007, 10:05 PM

umm never heard of it...is it like Scratch X?

i8_it · 08-01-2007, 10:32 PM

i have something similar from meguiars.. didn't try to buff after but it seemed to reduce the visibility of it from farther away...

mosport70 · 08-01-2007, 11:19 PM

The commercial says it had TUV approval. I wonder what that means when it comes to a product like this.

I would be curious to hear from European members that have used this product.

speedfreak81 · 08-02-2007, 08:23 AM

Never heard of it. I use Meguiar's Scratch X for fine scratches, works like a charm. Just rub it in and buff it right out, top it with a sealant/wax of your choice.

The September edition of Consumer Reports did a review of scratch removers, and actually top rated Quixx by a significant margin (90 points vs. 76 pts.). Mothers came in second. Meguiars ranked fourth.

You know I saw a commercial on T.V. about this stuff last night... It looks very interesting and they had a deal where you pay 19.95 and they double your order. I guess I will be the ginnie pig on this one.. Just placed my order online. I will let you guys know whats up!

PC = Porter Cable

GreddyBoy858 · 08-07-2007, 04:00 PM

How is using a Porter Cable easier than just rubbing out the scratches.. I mean, I'm lazy, but damn man..hahahaha

doing it by hand isn't the best way sometimes you just end up putting more scratches then you started with, and it take a good 2 days to do the whole car unless your superman and don't get tried...by using a porter cable it makes the whole process easy and you'll know that your are actually taking out the scratches and not just adding to them. I mean you can do it by hand but i mean i would do it by hand maybe if it were just a small spot otherwise I pull out the PC....

GreddyBoy858 · 08-08-2007, 12:24 AM

I figured that it had nothing to do with the kind of computer I was using.. I just couldnt think of what PC meant..

As far as doing the whole car, I was only going to use Quixx on a key mark that someone so graciously left me one day. Not the whole car.

Also, I think that the detail shop that fucked my car up two weeks ago used a PC on my car, there are like hologram-like swirls all over the car now.

Holograms are caused from a high speed rotary buffer, not a random orbital like the Porter Cable. Rotary to random orbital is like apples to oranges in comparison. A PC is a great long term investment for anyone who is serious about automotive car care.

If you have any questions on one, do not hesitate to ask.
