If you get a scratch or ding on the piano black areas, you can use nail polish. I found an almost perfect match. Got it at Walmart for a total of $4.26

I have a better idea.

DA orbital polisher. I used it today on window sills, grill, and middle section of the wing, and lower wing.

Used Meguiars Polishing compound with a white foam pad. All surface scratches disappeared!

That piano black is a bitch to keep scratch free. Totally worth it to get clear film placed over it.

Just finished my beer, now back to detailing my car...2nd coat of Cquartz U.K...prep work takes f'ing forever for these ceramic coatings!
