Suggestions on cleaning Rodico film from surface of black Rolex dials?

Hi gang,

I am re-assembling a genuine Rolex submariner for a client and was genltly removing some dust, lint etc from the face of a Black 16610 Rolex Submariner dial using RODICO. The RODICO works great; but leaves a faint film on the dial.Any suggestion on what to use to remove the thin film/residue left behind by the RODICO without scratching the surface of the dial?

thanks in advance!

Take a clean piece of Rodico and stretch it until you see a lighter shade of green in the stretched area, then fold it to expose the lighter area and use the lighter part to lift the smeared area by blotting or rolling it over the stain. When you do this it is not as bad to leave a film or smudge but if you rub it across a slick black dial it may leave a mark that might be permanent.

 

I use green Rodico to pick up fingerprints, specks, dust, oil on movements etc and blue A*F 'Rub-Off' watch putty on dials.

 

A*F Rub-Off is for real. Look it up.  :pimp:
