First time posting since I could not find another thread or post about this.
Just bought a 2019 Ram 1500 Long Horn and she’s my new love lol

Everything is great except for some shallow scratches around the body which really stick out with the black paint. I need your advice. Would you recommend a scratch repair kit or a factory match pen for the repairs? The scratches are so fine that I think a pen would be overkill and just stick out. Your thoughts?

Nice Truck, that black color is cool.
What’s the price you paid for it?

If you run your fingernails across the scratches, can you feel them?

If no, they can be "buffed out"
If yes, then you can minimize their appearance, but only with additional paint can they be repaired fully.

The scratches do not catch my nail and they’re light in color. I ordered some Meguiar’s based on a view video reviews which is coming tomorrow. Should I have does something different given that it’s black paint?
