These are surface scratchs, if i move a finger over them I could harldy feel them. If I run a finger nail at 90 degrees to them they barely catch it in some places. Not enough to stop the movement.
It almost looks like someone had run there fingernails back and forth 2" to 3" or a wire brush very lightly.
Should I be concerned? Is there anything I can do to fix it? I have not cleaned with pan cleaner yet. I am concerned about scorching because it is probably close to where the flame would hit it or atleast where flame spread out,
Thanks

No, I would not be concerned with them. You will put scratches in it too over the years- future scrubbings, possibly wire brushing if it needs it, running the scoop along the pan, etc. It happens. Maybe some sanding with very fine Scotch-Brite will lessen them, but the area you sand will probably stand out more afterwards than the original scratches! They won't bother the operation of it.
