it is no longer white because of this, yet you still notice the scratch in some angles because the scratch is still present just masked by the reflection


just my 2 cents
Yeah, that's what I thought at first too. It's kind of strange though because I can't feel the scratches at all with my fingernail. They are perfectly smooth.
