I currently have a 25 TRD Sport in Underground and I feel like I get scratches and swirls just by a gust of wind lol. I’ve always hand washed this. Long story short I was rear ended and I’m considering trading it in now that it has been repaired for a 26 4Runner in Heritage Blue

Does Heritage Blue scratch just as easy or is there another color that is less scratch and swirl resistant?
I have a Heritage Blue 25 Limited and it hides scratches pretty well. However it DOES scratch rather easily. My 23 Black Tundra was the same. I think the clear coat is soft?? Pissed me off to no end. One regular car wash and I was compounding that sucker like crazy. My HB Limited hides it better but it is t perfect. One of the few niggles I have with Toyo in general. That HB looks sweet tho!

Let us know how that ceramic looks. I did the front window tints and it looks bad a$&. Considering ceramic after a good correction in the summer. It suck ass here now and I can’t get warm enough to work on it in the winter. Even in the garage.
