[QUOTE="dsiggi, post: 1999055, member: 25674"] You'll be surprised how well you can hide them without getting them all the way out with I believe what they call the 5-5-5 method? Something I've recently seen in detailing but I've been doing it for years without a real name. You just take a moderate compound on a microfiber pad and take about 5 seconds with a little pressure and run the length of the scratch. You'll still see it under very intense light but otherwise it wont be noticeable. you are taking the edge off the scratch and rounding it changing the way it reflects light. ie in general day light. Then if you PPF it you'll never see them. I'd recommend PPF over a wrap. They hold up to UV etc much better and have 10 year warranties. I've heard horror stories of wraps on vehicles that sit in intense heat / outside all the time and believe they should be removed every couple of years. I've had XPEL on my 18 Gen 2 for over 6 years and its worked great helping to keep the pinstripes down. [/QUOTE]
