look at it under fluorescent light. I recently hung a bunch more fluorescent lights (4) in my garage and man you think your paint is scratch free. I see a bunch of microscratches in my paint, mainly on the hood. It appears that they are in the Zaino layer and didn't get down to the clear.
Oh well time to get the Porter Cable out and polish those babies away.
Try it the next time you're at the mall at night. Park under the lights and look at your car from different angles. Oooh!!!
