About Scratch-Dini
Scratch-dini is a formula which is said to quickly buff out scratches from the surfaces of a variety of vehicles. It comes in 4-ounce tubes and is claimed to work on any color finish. The commercial for Scracth-dini claims that it contains something called Carbopal EZ-3 and millions of micro-particles, but it is never explained exactly what this substance is or how it works to remove scratches. In the commercial, it is also claimed that a single 4-ounce tube of Scratch-dini contains enough formula to fix hundreds of scratches.
The official website is scratchdini.com, which was registered on March 15, 2013. Their customer service phone number is 1-866-684-5574.
How Much Does Scratch-dini Cost?
A 4-ounce tube of Scratch-dini Scratch Remover costs $10 plus $7.95 processing and handling for a total of $17.95. They also include Scratch-dini Headlight Restorer. They will double the order for another $7.95, for a grand total of $25.90.
There is no way to simply order one bottle of Scratch-dini from the website, meaning their “special offer” is the only option available and you will be charged $25.90.
If you attempt to navigate away from scratchdini.com, you’ll be given an option to purchase the product for $5 off your order. On this screen, you’ll also be given the opportunity to select a quantity.
Scratch-dini is now widely available in stores, as we spotted it in an “As Seen on TV” store locally (see graphic below).

Our Scratch-dini Review
Car scratch removal products have been on the market for years, with products available from many of the big players such as 3M, Dupont, and Turtle. Scratch-dini has been advertising on television since early 2013, and promises to buff out scratches in seconds.
In our tests of Scrach-dini, we saw no visible improvement in scratches whatsoever, even hairline scratches. We attempted a variety of techniques and scratch depths, and could not achieve an acceptable result for any use of the product. We give Scratc-dini 1 out of 5 stars.
Bottom Line
We found Scratch-dini Scratch Remover to be ineffective even for hairline scratches. There are less expensive scratch removal options you can purchase locally. A visit to your local auto parts and accessories store may yield many more options. If you are determined to try it, pick it up locally to avoid shipping charges and delays.
