Geez, the sun was shining just right in my garage and I saw billions of scratches on my two-month-old clear coat.

Then I dusted off an area and merely ran my thumb across it a few times. Guess what? MORE scratches: from my thumb! I tried to eliminate those new scratches, thinking they were "grease" from my thumb but..., no..., they were microfine scratches. Wow.

I know you can't see the paint getting dull until fine scratches accumulate for a few years, (I'm very careful with my paint too) but is there anyway to "harden" the surface by using say, ureathane (?) or "poly" type sealants? Maybe my carnauba wax is too soft?

Do you think the 997 clearcoat is too soft? Do I have a bad clearcoat?

BTW, car is Slate Grey , so I guess the darkness doesn't help. Fisrt time I had a dark-colored Porsche. Maybe this is normal?
