Default Fixing fine scratches on ES trim on exterior & interior. My process....

I have been a bit bedeviled by fine scratches on two areas of my car...the painted black trim on my door window frames and the interior wood clearcoat/polycoat.

To start with I tried the outside door frames.
Here is the fine scratches I found on driver side:


I then worked in Zaino Z-5 and let haze:


Good results to show:


Passenger side results (just as scratched):

Interior I used Klasse AIO on wood with usual great results:


I believe I could have used Z-5 on the interior as well but I had just done the AIO last week.

Hopefully this will give you some ideas next time you find fine scratches on interior or exterior trim.
