Yes, if i recall i paid in the neighborhood of $6 or 7 for the mothers. By the way, this does NOT erase the scratches ! It simply makes them invisable and they come back once it wears off. However, the Zaino will surely work i would think. But if it doesn't, try mothers scratch remover. It DOE'S indeed erase them.

But the reason i'm so stoked about the sealer glaze over the scratch remover is that those swirls will come right back quickly after you polish them out. It just takes cleaning and any wiping whether it be waxing, washing or detailing will bring the scratches right back. And it's a bit of a job to rub them out. But the sealer glaze just wipes on and off like liquid wax. So if you want the absolute best fix, scratch remover, then sealer glaze. but to be honest the glaze by itself covers them up so good i have little reason to bother rubbing them out with the remover. I can simple wipe the glaze on and off once every couple weeks or so and they'll stay invisible. Rubbing them out is a pain and they come back as soon as you wipe the paint down during cleaning anyways.

So in short you can use polish (scratch remover or whatever you wanna call it) and spend an hour or so working hard only to see them reappear in a couple weeks. Or you can wipe the sealer on and off in about 5-10 minutes once every couple weeks. Thats why i only use the scratch remover a couple times a year. Just when they get very bad. Also only seldom because any time you polish a finish with a clear coat you're chances of going thru it become a reality if you do it much. But in any case, you're talking 2 different things here.......covering the scratches up vs removing them. Both last about the same amount of time.
