If I were you, I'd get some car polish on those scratches and get the panel up there!
The areas that are shiny are my attempt at using gentle abrasive. It took the anti-reflective coating off.

As long as they don't ask for it back, It'll be going up in a month or so (can't get any more roof hooks until then). I'll also install Tigos on the whole install.

I'm sure there will be a remedy for the anti glare, ..I'd also be decreasing it & wanging my car polisher on it too, what was that micro crack brand "tolleys" !? Likely that would infill the scratches of any are deep & have you wary!?

Incidentally: silicone cleaning brush is recommended (silicone tendrils / filaments) are recommended for coated solar panels or "the softest brush possible"
