I can see some very fine scratches, when looking at indirect angles. I will say that these occur less than with a previous Jet Black BMW I had without Opticoat. I no longer wash/detail myself. I have a detailer wash/detail my cars, and touch-less car washes in between. I'm rather obsessed about my car's appearance, and these don't bother me too much. I have to really look for these scratches. I don't recall the name, but I believe there is a product one can use to reduce these swirls, on top of Opticoat.
