Not really visible unless in direct sunlight and looked for but they were there and I haven't used the razor unless it's the last resort. I mainly use oven cleaner and let that do it's work for hours and sometimes overnight. I then reapply and then scrape w/ a plastic scraper. Then warm water, Dawn and a nylon scrub brush/sponge. If after doing that twice and it's still not clean, then I carefully use the razor. Basically, I won't reach for the razor first. Only as a last resort or for trouble spots. Interesting. I followup the razor with 000 steel wool and those microscratches or whatever go away. I've done this so many times I didn't think they were actually scratches.
