ScratchPro is a revolutionary diamond buffing compound, designed for the removal of scratches in automotive paint finishes, chrome wheels, headlamp covers, and metal trims. Why is ScratchPro unique? Unlike other scratch removal products, ScratchPro’s diamond buffing compounds effectively remove light and medium scratches that may otherwise require a body shop’s expertise and equipment to repair, saving time and money. ScratchPro is the only product available on the market today that contains diamond powder and allows anyone, regardless of experience level, to remove scratches - no power tools, no buffer, no body shop, and no experience required. Kit Includes: 1 Red ScratchPro diamond buffing compound syringe 1 Yellow ScratchPro diamond buffing compound syringe 1 Grey ScratchPro diamond buffing compound syringe 1 Red buffing pad 1 Yellow buffing pad 1 White buffing pad 1 foam gripper for easy buffing by hand 3 plastic buffing pad protectors Application Instructions: Important! Read all instructions and warnings before use. Improper use of the kit may result in unsatisfactory results and could cause additional damage to the scratched surface. STEP 1, RED - SCRATCH REMOVAL: Begin by cleaning the scratched area well, removing all dirt with a soapy water or mild cleaning agent. Carefully secure the Red pad to the foam gripper - the pad should be firmly attached before beginning. Apply a generous amount of Red compound #1 to Red buffing pad #1. By firmly holding the gripper, buff vigorously in a circular motion until the scratch is no longer visible. This may take several minutes, but it is important to completely remove the scratch during this step. When finished with step 1, clean the area thoroughly of all residue before proceeding to step #2, again by using a mild cleaning agent. Failure to completely clean all of the diamond compound from the surface will cause scratching during the following steps. Remove the red buffing pad from the gripper and cover the used side with a plastic pad protector before storing. For deeper scratches which have exposed the metal below the paint, you have to apply OEM touch-up paint AND clear coat before using ScratchPro. Follow the manufacturers’ instructions. Once the clear coat has been applied and has dried completely, begin with Scratch Pro step #1. Step 2, YELLOW - BUFFING: Carefully secure the Yellow pad to the gripper - the pad should be firmly attached to the gripper before proceeding. Apply a generous amount of Yellow compound #2 to Yellow buffing pad #2. By firmly holding the gripper, buff vigorously in a circular motion until the area appears polished. It is very important to FEATHER OUT this step significantly further than step #1, ensuring a seamless blend into the clear coat. Clean the area thoroughly of all residue with a mild cleaning agent before proceeding to step #3. Failure to completely clean all of the diamond compound from the surface will cause scratching during the last step. Remove the yellow buffing pad from the gripper and cover the used side with a plastic pad protector before storing. Note: It is common for the buffing pad to assume the color of the vehicle’s paint, especially when buffing dark colored cars; this is normal. Step 3, GREY - POLISHING: Secure the White pad to the gripper and apply a generous amount of Grey compound #3 to White buffing pad #3. Buff in a circular motion until the area is completely polished and blends with the surrounding color coat. It is again very important to feather out this step significantly further than step #2, ensuring a seamless blend into the clear coat. RUSHING THROUGH THIS STEP WILL RESULT IN A HAZED LOOK. If you notice any hazing, you should go back and repeat step #3. When done, remove the white buffing pad from the gripper and cover the used side with a plastic pad protector before storing. Finish by once again cleaning the area of all residue. The area should be completely clean of all buffing compound; the scratch should be eliminated, with the surrounding area polished and seamlessly blended. This third polishing step may also be used to polish other dull areas of the car’s coat, including the car’s edges, metal, and chrome-coated trim, as this step is designed for polishing only; this is especially important to remember if repairing an older car and the user would like to restore shine to the entire coat, and not only the scratched area.

This may take several minutes, but it is important to completely remove the scratch during this step. When fi nished with step 1, clean the area thoroughly of all residue before proceeding to step #2, again by using a mild cleaning agent. Failure to completely clean all of the diamond compound from the surface will cause scratching during the following steps.

Step 2, YELLOW - BUFFING: Carefully secure the Yellow pad to the gripper - the pad should be fi rmly attached to the gripper before proceeding. Apply a generous amount of Yellow compound #2 to Yellow buffi ng pad #2. By fi rmly holding the gripper, buff vigorously in a circular motion until the area appears polished. It is very important to FEATHER OUT this step signifi cantly further than step #1, ensuring a seamless blend into the clear coat. Clean the area thoroughly of all residue with a mild cleaning agent before proceeding to step #3. Failure to completely clean all of the diamond compound from the surface will cause scratching during the last step. Remove the yellow buffi ng pad from the gripper and cover the used side with a plastic pad protector before storing.

Important Product Information:

• ALWAYS clean the scratched area completely between steps, removing all traces of the previous compound before proceeding. ALWAYS apply the compounds in order as marked on the syringes, and ALWAYS use the same buffing compound with its designated buffing pad, as these should NEVER be mixed or swapped.

• When not in use, ScratchPro buffing pads should always be covered by the included pad protectors. Once a buffing pad has been coated with buffing compound, it is highly susceptible to contamination by foreign particles, as these may stick to the pads’ surface and cause scratching. Never use a buffing pad that has been dropped on the floor, come into contact with the wrong buffing compound, or contaminated by any foreign matter or particles.

• Store ScratchPro compounds between 41° and 100° F, and avoid direct sunlight, as this may cause melting. ALWAYS replace the syringe caps after use to prevent leakage.

Caution: Possible skin and eye irritant. The manufacturer’s liability is limited to the replacement of product or refund of purchase price upon return of unused portion of the product. Except where required by law, Superabrasive will not be liable for any loss or damage caused by the product.
