[mention]leeyewfei[/mention] you call it scratches, I call it character 😊 but yes, I get your point.

On the other hand, depending on the sandblasted process used, the surface can be more or less prone to scratches too.

Getting the itch here you should do a before and after post. Start with bezel!
