A thousand words.. yet I wasn't able to get an good image of what I did today.. I've had this old bottle of Meguiar's Scratch-X which I thoughts wasn't any good.. attempting to use this product on the passenger door yesterday without any success.
Washing the Jeep this morning, I noticed of more scratches which I've never seen before. it appears whom even had this jeep before, must have had someone on the hood.. the classic signs of jean tabs scratches or even a duffel bag etc was dragged across the hood.. (front windshield to front grill) right down the center. Perhaps this jeep had seen some low tree limbs as well as mud, which is still caked on in a few areas I'm unable to access.
This seem like a prime opportunity to give the Scratch-X another try.. reading the directions and taking one of my micro fiber rags.. I worked the scratch-x into all areas of the hood nearly reworking the whole hood itself. I was called away.. but returned soon after.. the Scratch-X was a pale white colors but was thin enough for me to rub off with another micro fiber rag/cloth.
Working in a circular pattern, I was able to removed the dried on and even caked on (in areas) Scratch-X product.. Mind you my hands are not as they once were.. Nerve damage has left them nearly useless.. But at least if I took my time and held the rag or cloth as tight as I could, I was able to remove all of the polish.
The shine was remarkable.. and you could barely see the scratches.. finishing up with the Quick detail spray.. the Jeep's hood has never looked better.. Now this has got me wanting to do more.. But my hands and arms just can't take the pressure or pain associated with this type of cleaning, polishing and detailing anymore.
So here is my question: Is there a "mit" or "glove" that I could place on my hand instead of clinching my fist while holding the cloth to removed the dried on polish or wax?.. I'm just not ready to attempt anything with a power tool.. and I'd much rather us my hands.. even as weak as they are.
I feel if there was a polishing glove or mit I could slip over my hand and that wont come off unless I wanted it to.. that I could use to apply and removed these products from our Jeep when detailing?..
