2012 Jetta key scratch removal Orinda Auto Detail

[Orinda Auto Detail]

This car got keyed in a nasty way luckily its VW paint that is hard as nails and it didn't break the clear. I looked at it, took a couple quick readings and decided I could safely get a 90% correction on the scratch with a little effort. Also being a new car since it was already here, He decided agiast a full exterior detail or correction so we just clayed it and sealed it with HD Poxy. Check it out!

Before

After Trizac 2k sand paper and compounding, followed by SIP on my Flex to get rid of halos. Quick IPA wipe down showed they were actually gone(I didn't use a finishing polish on this because this one part of the car would of stood out really bad since I was just sealing up the rest of it and it had swirls and some light hazing) Below: LOVE COMPOUNDING DUST LOL I had to wash the car again yay!

I polished the whole pannel hoping to show it the customer so he would let me get all the swirls out of his car and..... IT WORKED! Book correction for next week also extremely happy the scratch is gone!.

After HD poxy, This is first I put it on a car I just clayed. I'm now 1000000000% convinced that this stuff is full of fillers This car look way worse than this. hmmmm

Ill post strip down pics for correction next week
Thanks for looking!

From my understanding it is a hybrid sealant and Montan wax (like Carnuba but higher melting temp) so would that account for any filling??
