I love the look of Oskar's blue hull and have not found heat absorption to be a problem even in our 40+ C summer temperatures.
However, scratches ARE a problem, and even light ones show up immediately. I've found them very difficult to remove and/or obscure :(

Finally found the products that do the job for my Blue hull:

3m marine rubbing compound for boats for heavy oxidized or scratched surfaces (which does a super job on the black stripes) followed by Meguires Step 2 deep crystal system polish and collinites fleet wax. I am satisfied with the results.
