How to prevent scratches on my Ford Mondeo's paint?

I recently bought a new Ford Mondeo and I want to keep the paint looking pristine. However, I've noticed some scratches appearing on the surface. What are some preventative measures I can take to protect my car's paint?

Invest in a good quality car cover to protect your Ford Mondeo from any external debris or scratches.

Use a wax or sealant regularly to add a layer of protection to your car's paint.

Be cautious when parking your car and avoid areas with potential hazards, such as overhanging branches or tight spaces.
