Check a post I did about my method: http://www.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/just-little-cleaning-135497.html?t=135497
In case you can't read the link, here is it again. Its a very easy process and works great. And yes, go in one direction only
taking your time. If the scratches are still there, just repeat the process until they are all gone. The nail file I used has 4
different sides and some you can buy will have a different level of roughness on each side.
OK, so I got my 'gently-used' Omega Ploprof last week. Tonight (while the wife was out) I decide to do a little cleaning.
I use the wife's nail file to get the job done, so it's a good idea to wait until she's not around. OK, so with 30 minutes,
the wife's nail file, my polishing cloth and my camera, here are the results:
The clasp 'before' with a few desk marks:
Now the 'after' shot, after some buffing with the nail file and polishing cloth:
The project table (the kitchen island) another good reason to wait for the wife to be out:
So, if you have a few desk marks that bother you, grab your wife's nail file and clean'em up.
