Is there any way to remove very fine scratches (spider web thin) from the moldings? Or is the material too soft? You can only see these scratches in direct sunlight. When there's shade they are impossible to see. I love my TL to death so even something as miniscule as this annoys me.

Regular waxes won't remove anything ... and ScratchX .. you can't get much milder ... I have even used Megs #80 with a PC on those ..

Is the window trim (highlighted in the picture above) on our TL's high gloss or more of a satin finish? I spoke with a representative from Meguiar's and he told me that if it's more of a satin finish, ScratchX won't work. If it's a high gloss finish, ScratchX should work very well. The window trim looks pretty glossy to me. Sorry, I'm a noob when it comes to things like this. Thanks for the help guys!
