Darker colors, especially black will have a tendency to scratch if you look at them wrong. The problem is that the clear coat, when scratched, will be lighter than the paint below. Thus appearing more easil if not magnifying the problem looking worse. Lighter colors will scratch the same but not show as easily or as prominantly.
