Pre Finish Inquiry

Just wondering if anyone has any input about or has used a product called Scratch Freee? Is this basically Triple EEE or a derivative of such?
I believe it's sold by CSUSA. Thanks for your info.

I have not used Scratch Free, but it does appear to be about the same as EEE.

Thank you for responding sir.

I have a couple of customers that swear by it. I have not used and do not know it's chemistry. Just thought I would pass on a second hand testimonial.

I've used it a few times now and it had removed scratches that I could not.

I've used it - it's a 'cut and polish' wax and buffing compound mix similar to EEE Ultrashine. I've not used EEE Ultrashine, but based on what I have read, it appears that the major difference is that ScratchFreee is made in the US while EEE Ultrashine is made in Oz, and Ultrashine is more expensive.

It worked well for me in making Nostepinne (Scandinavian yarn winding sticks) where there is a need to be ultimately smooth. It produce a very smooth, shiny surface. The label suggests using a shellac-based top coat - I used a shop-made version of Shellawax (paste wax thinned with shellac). The label suggests that if you want to use a lacquer-based top coat, it is necessary to wipe down the piece with a solvent to remove any residual wax - I guess that makes sense, but I've never had a need to try it.

Thank you all for the great advice/feedback.
