No comments on how to approach light surface or deep scratches post Opti-Coat?
What effect will a shops buffing, etc. have on the coating and if it is in only a certain area do I re opti-coat just that spot or what? I apologize for being new and uninformed on the subject matter.

I had a little mishap that caused some scratches/scuff marks on the top of my trunk and I picked up a bottle of Meguiar's Ultimate Compound (after asking Mike first) and it worked for the most part. There are still some scratches that I just can't seem to get out though. Any thoughts on what my next step should be?

Bingo. I asked David at Optimum this question and his response was that you can polish the Opti Coated car with a finishing polish and finishing pad, ONCE, without removing the coating. Anything more aggressive or more often and its time to reapply. The good news is that if you do get a scratch, it is easily removed and then you can just reapply to that panel.
