I just picked it up for both of my Bimmers... the Calypso and Sapphire Black.

The e34 has a lot of dings, so that will be the real test. The e60 only has minor road rash, but it can still use it.

I'll take some before and after pics.

Think it will work on fine scratches?!?! Whomever leased the car before I bought it obviously thought it was okay to put things on top of the trunk resulting in some hairline scratches. I'd love to find the best way to remove these.

Buffing would be a good start. You might want to consult one of the detailing experts the the Detailing forum. Pics always help.
