Am I out of my mind? #obsessed


I have a pair of B&W 805d3 stand mount speakers. I dust them weekly with a microfiber cloth. From a few feet away they still look brand new but on closer examination they aren’t perfect. Tiny micro scratches and smudges. I had the thought of trying a polishing product or car wax to make them perfect again. Good idea or am I just #obsessed?

   Never used it on speakers but I had a black BMW. In certain lighting conditions I could see very faint swirl marks. Most people probably didn't notice but I did. On the recommendation from a friend (professional auto painter) I used the 3M Imperial Hand Glaze prior to waxing. The glaze is not an abrasive. After, I could not see the swirl marks on the car.

   You may try the glaze on a small area of a speaker to see if it helps. I don't think you need to apply a wax after like you would on a car. A little difference in how to remove the excess glaze as compared to auto polishes and waxes....no need to wait for drying time. If there is any glaze left on the surface after using the microfiber, just apply more glaze to that area and wipe off before drying. Never tried the stuff on anything but cars but it really did a great job on them.
Agreed....for cars nothing beats a high quality carnauba wax if the surface is prepared properly. Aside from the appearance of the finished product that wax offers excellent protection from weather elements. Speakers don't need that. No need to apply a wax to them since it probably won't do anything to hide the blemishes you see.
