Contamination from environment or media seem your most probable causes.

If scratches are occurring after buffing, then you have a material handling problem. Suggest you implement a training program that may need the use of gloves and/or layering of work pieces. Lastly, you might want to consider some kind of sticky contact paper to protect part surfaces.
