No More scratches!!! Reply #3 – March 15, 2009, 10:59:52 PM thats cool, but i think what they're talking about is something like what that as seen on tv thing is, but a step further. i wonder if they would start putting the material into clearcoat so if you get a scratch anywhere, just expose it to the sun and BAM! no scratches. ever.
