    AutoGlym paint renovator

    Not recommended in the sunlight. If its for scratch removal try Meguliers ActiveX, much better and less harsh than Autoglyms renovator. I have found Autoglyms renovator to leave tiny scratches in the past, use with caution !! Its not a polish but a fine cutting agent
