I was bored earlier and was flicking through some of the shopping channels on Sky when I came across a channel selling this (http://www.bestdirect.tv/product-Smart-Pen-2-4-1--FREE-Smart-Car-Polish-SMART.htm).

The advert was ridiculous, looked totally edited and the scratched area on the car from the advert was totally untarnished after one brush from this "magic pen".

Is this stuff for real? Or is it a load of nonsense? Anyone used it?

personally i think it's a load of bollards, the scratch before and after look like a different part of the car, considering that the scratch was down to the metal! just a con imo, if it's a small scratch, use T-cut.

there have been SMALL clear-coat scratches that I have successfully repaired with a paint pen and a lot of polishing but it's certainly not going to fix the scratch in my van haha!

Behind the mall (parking lot) . It's been abused for 5 years by almost everyone in our office.. it needs like 5k worth of work + new tires and god only knows what else. It was a hit and run :(

I think it might slightly be a gimic :P

Take a picture of the scratch and we might be able to point you in the right direction :)

it's been like that for over a year now, there's other deep scratches all over it.. it's being replaced soon with a 2011 Sienna, I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!
