Our blue Taycan 4s has some small stratches in the paint and we have started to wonder whether there is a problem with the paint quality. We have washed our month old car very gently at home and we do not remember any incidents that could have caused the scratches. Have you noticed similar issues?

Yikes! I have not seen on mine (although I don't drive as much as I would like to). Makes me feel like re-visiting my decision not to do PPF.

No problem with the paint durability. Sorry to see that happen to your 4s. One of my friends had similar short scratches all over his car. The culprit, a neighboring pet, was discovered after installing a motion-sensing camera. He was able to detail out the paint scratches and has been covering his car whenever it's in the driveway.

When I had a blue metallic Macan it was forever getting small scratches and visible stone chips as the white undercoat would show. That’s why I’ve moved to white, or metallic silver, top coat.

Could it be from a watch or a ring?
Yes one theory is that someone has taken selfie pictures from our car and has been sitting and leaning on it. Metallic parts of clothes,rings and watches may have caused the damages.
