United States 2006 LR3 4.4 V8 SE Auto Java BlackLR3

I recently turned-in my java black LR3, which was regularly used on gravel and overgrown brush "roads". Lots of sage-brush pinstriping and was even keyed, yet did not have any visible scratches. No damage or money due LRNA at lease-end.

3 times a year: Aggressive polish with Random Orbital Polisher on surface scratches/marks, fine polish with ROP, Wax prep spray, Sealant. I used Griot's products, but I'm sure others work well too.
Bad scratches pinstriping: Lanka Sanding kit and Lanka Blob remover

Of course, you can also just bring it to a professional and be done with it.
