Corp. Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 I use a cleaner for CERAN-cooking-plates which contains micro-abrasives - it works...! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChipSlap Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 I have done it on a UPO by rubbing it with a tissue with acetone in it. Wear gloves, and do outside or under a hood. This technique requires care to keep the acetone from getting into the case and dissolving the gasket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks a lot for a quick answer! Did You take of the crystal before You started or did You remove the crystal first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluerex Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 I too have been trying to remove the AR off the crystal. I have taken the crystal out and had a go with acetone with absolutely no results. I then tried glass cooktop cleaner, which did take the AR off in places. I have been trying to get rid of the remaining AR with no luck. Not sure what to try next.... Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bike Mike Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Cape Cod cloth will do it. Has a much better scent too then what has already been mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEleven Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 I too have been trying to remove the AR off the crystal. I have taken the crystal out and had a go with acetone with absolutely no results. I then tried glass cooktop cleaner, which did take the AR off in places. I have been trying to get rid of the remaining AR with no luck. Not sure what to try next.... Any suggestions? I had the same problem recently with the AR on my 111H. I tried everything from acetone to Cape Cod cloth to silver/brass polish and scrub sponge, but the result was hairline scratches in the AR. It seemed that some AR are made to take a beating. I eventually bought a Dremel and polishing compund, it took a while but that seemed to work. However I couldn't get the edges around the crystal. In the end as I had to get the watched serviced, I asked Domenico if he could remove the remaining AR as I had no idea how to remove the crystal from the case. My advice is to try removing the crystal and go downtown on it with a Dremel and some polishing compound. Might take a while, but it seems to be the only thing that worked for me.
