Removing scratches from Brushed S.S. bracelets.

[guanaco]

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!

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:

This is an old BY-TOR cure....works great, but I prefer a 1200 grit.

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.
