Black Window Trim

After a few washes I am noticing minor scratches on the black window trim. Just wanted to see what everyone uses to buff those out? We already wash with the two bucket method and microfiber clothes. Not sure why those areas are showing the scratches so bad.

You have to be extremely gentle on the trim to prevent scratching it. I used a Rupes LH21 with a Uber Green Foam Pad and Menzerna SF4000 to get mine dialed in. Then I just applied the same wax, Auto Finesse Desire, to them that I put on the rest of the car.
