For examples, after a rainy road trip the rear of the car was toasted with dirt and when I washed it, this heinous V scratch was under it:



It will polish out, might take 2-step tho, but I have no idea how it got there, especially since the bottom of the tailgate opens down covering the bumper when loading.

Since I never got near there while it was dirty my only guess is, someone brushed it with a bag or something walking by.

Anyway, since I've started doing a 20 min speed wash most days (good exercise!) this hasn't happened again.
That part of any of my cars is a scratch magnet, one of the few places I put PPF
