No need to scrap.
On the colony screen, once you have built an orbital base and have designed a new class of ship, an icon that looks like a small blue wrench will appear. (look for it above the build queue)
This will allow you to access refit for any ship that qualifies currently in orbit.

Quick responce! I have the wrench and I have ships that should be able to upgrade but I cannot see any place to refit in my screen.

When you find Adamantium Armor you basically possess the best armor available in the game. You don't actually change the armor, all the current ship designs are upgraded to the best armor available automatically (but, mind you, not the ships you already built, those need to be refitted to enjoy from the best armor available).

Oh.. I was not aware that was the best armor and I must have gotten it in a ruins then o.0.

As gaiuskonstantine said, you need an orbital station built in the colony you wish to refit your ships on. Then the refit button will work and provide you with the ship refit screen.

Thanks for the screenshots! Those always help.

Yes, Adamantium can only be found in ruins, so, that was an extraordinary find! :)

Great info. I looked and looked and looked to findout a way to refit, but apparently did not look in the right place. Then I looked here, and you helped me out! Thanks for that.
