In the process of putting my stock system back on and there are a few scratches on the cat body (not the cover but sides and underneath)
Question: when this is on the bike do you see that area? Does it discolour with heat?

Anyone have any magic tricks for lightly polishing it to remove the hairline scratches? They are just handling scratches, i.e. really small surface ones not mega big stuff, but I am fussy and cant get rid using autosol.

its kinda pointless on the cat its going to get messy at the end of the day all you could do with it it polish it to get scratches out then it still wont look very good and its an awfull lot of work........

The bottom of the cat will discolor due to heat, you might want to put some high temp black paint on the cat while you have it off. The very bottom isn't seen too much unless you're setting up for a photo shoot and leaning the bike in and the photographer is on the outside catching a shot.
