minor scratches

Ok..I see some minor scratches I believe that I created with no using proper drying towel. Anway I have read a lot of post about what to do and use and I think I know what to do, but here's my question. I just clayed/polished and used paint sealant (all Garys products). My question is when I try to buff out with scratch x, PC and or paint cleaner will I have to RE APPLY Gary's paint sealant over the erea's I treated to repair the scratches?

If you have scracthes you have to remove them with a buffer, applying the paint sealant will only hide them. MY favorite machine is the DeWalt DW443, use it with a yellow pad and a paint cleaner, it will even out the paint nicely, then start the pratice using the right products and techniqes...Gary

thanks Gary....I will using my friends orbital hopefully this evening. The scratches barely noticeable just aggrevate me being the car is only 2 weeks old. I've never used one before so not sure on the yellow pad thing you mention? I assume there are different one's to choose from and I will hopefully be able to pick one of these up at Pep Boys, Autozone?

Every manufacturer has a different color code for pads, for example, mine are yellow (cutting) green (polishing) blue (finishing) meguiars is red cutting and tan finishing and polishing, you have to check, not sure about auto zone. gary
