Is there a way to get fine scratches / swirls out?

Sure, but you'll just get different ones in the process. Unless you decide to go mirror shine.

I messed up! I used an abrasive spong with the acetone. And at the end the thing that actually worked was windex

Yeah, uhh, don't use abrasives unless you're trying to put scratches in it. Adding scratches can obscure past ones.

Don't use acetone unless you spill paint on your truck. It's just overkill and toxic and expensive.

And make sure to wash Windex off with water, Windex is good at fingerprints (they're oil) but it encourages oxidation.

I use Optimum and it works wonders on finger prints.

There's a detailed procedure in the Cybertruck Collision Repair Manual for refinishing:

After application does it need to be rinsed off?

No you don't. You you mix 1-2 oz of it in a gallon of water and then fill a spray bottle. I keep a mini spray bottle of it and a microfiber cloth in the truck with me at all times.

I got my ONR kit yesterday and it was amazing. I can’t believe I’ve been washing my car with soap and water then rinsing and drying all this time.

Any reason you don’t just buy the Optimum spray?

Not sure. I have only seen people using the “blue revision 5” bottle. Get it, test it and let us know.

That price is rough though. I have only used 2 oz out of the 32oz bottle of the blue stuff and that made a gallon of spray to use. Hard to beat that.
