Is there any scratch remover thats Opti-Coat safe. I have a few white marks on the fender from rocks but it doesn't look like they went through the coating, if I polish one long enough with a microfiber and Optimum Instant Detailer they come off. In the past though I would just use Meguiars scratchX and those would come right off, but I'm a little hesitant to use that on Opti-Coat.

Is there a product that would help me that doesn't take off any opti-coat but would do what scratchx does.

Opti-coat will not protect against scratches or stone chips. It sits in the pores of the paint not above it like a paint protection film.

The only way to remove below surface imperfections is to lower the clear coat beneath the imperfection (which will remove the part of the paint where the opti-coat is sitting).

Any way you look at it you're probably going to have to polish the scratched area and then coat the panel.
