Best Scratch Remover for Automotive Paint? Cheap vs Store Bought vs Professional vs Toothpaste?!??

I have had several requests for this video - I tried to stick with mainly store bought stuff that you could find locally. A lot of it comes down to HOW DEEP is your scratch that you're trying to repair. Some of these are only intended for light scratches and some are only for moderate ones (and some only for very deep scratches).

I know Todd over at Project Farm did something a little different a few years ago, but I wanted to approach this from a detailing professional's perspective, so here it is! His video ‪@ProjectFarm‬ is here:    • Best Car Paint Scratch Remover? Let's find...   - go follow him if you don't already. He's another great unsponsored YouTube channel out there!

Like most of the oversaturated detailing products/auto care market, there are MANY others out there, so I can always make an addendum to this, but I know that NuFinish Scratch Doctor is one that got overlooked (I even saw it when I was buying some of the others locally as you'll see in the video!), but I'm sure there are many others.
