guanaco Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 I ran into this website a while back and tried its solution for removing scratches on Brushed S.S. bands like on the Seamaster and the Planet Oceans, it actually works! I removed the huge scuff and scratches my U-PO 'Lite' had which were very annoying to look at, the scuffs looked like a smashed window, and some scratches were medium/deep, I brushed for about 10 min. (Brush in one direction only!) And voila! The bracelet looked brand new! I had to send him a thank you email, this saved me a trip to the watch-smith... again! http://www.rolexreferencepage.com/seamaster/smp%20clasp.html I accidentally bought the pad/sponge duo with lemon scent, , lemon scented scratch remover! For $0.98 a pair it was a bargain! Good for about 100 scratch repairs approximately each. Sorry about the crappy pics, no before pics also, sorry... And some crappy shots of the watch: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmilian Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 This is an old BY-TOR cure....works great, but I prefer a 1200 grit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andreww Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 I use an extremely light weight sand paper. It takes out the scuffs in seconds. Then a quick going over with a cape cod cloth (just enough to even out the finish) and my bracelets look like new. For polished bracelets I use brass/silver polish with my dremel polishing wheel. I have taken a bracelet with several years of daily wear back to "brand new" condition in less than an hour with this method. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
