Default Maguire's tec wax 2

Wow i have just put on a coat of mag's scratch-x 2.0 and a coat of tec wax 2.0 and the bike just glitters! as advertized the stuff is top shelf for sure. However on certain angles up close and under full sunlight I can see small dings and scratches....guess I'll need to take it a step up and get an actual buffer to try and smooth it out even more.

I use "meguiar's" products for years even the wax u just used. They make many steps of buffing compound that I think will get you the scratch free result you want by hand won't ,remove any dents LoL.
Just remember their number system works in stages meaning a very abrasive rubbing compound must be followed up be a few stages of polish to finally get ride of the marks from the last one tell their all gone then wax is last. I even recomend the clay bar for the mile deep gloss.

No worse than any other wax I have used,you got to be careful not to get it into coners that are hard to reach like in cracks. That just makes the job longer tho the rest comes off with elbow grease.
