I'm hard pressed to find any chips, scratches or discolor on my 1995 FLHT Dresser's Gloss Black fairing, tanks or tins, the paint looks brand new, but also over the last 19 years the paint has been very well taken care of with the Turtle in Green, Color Back, and Scratch remover.

My 2014 doesn't seem as easily scratched as the 2011 was. But the paint also isn't as "deep" and the orange peel is bad!

Take the imperfections out of the paint when you are ready to sell or trade. Owing a Vette, one learns how to fix paint imperfections as the car does not ding or dent. Scratches and chips are a walk in the park to remove and repair like new.
