Removing fine scratch marks from VPI plinth


I've searched the forums and haven't found a thread on this much to my surprise. Just wondering out there how VPI owners of the acrylic plinths of the Aries series tables and the HRX's clean their shiny black plinths and remove those hairline surfaces scratches that can accumulate over time.

Novus Polishes are what most Plastics Companies suggest to use. One can also use 3M Hand Glazes and get very good results as well.

The key with any product you use, will be always to use the least agressive product. It is better to use something like Novus #2, and use it a few times gently, rather than using a more agressive product like Novus #3, and trying to remove deep scratches all in one application. Try to resist the urge to rub hard in any one particular area, it will cause hazing-light scratching, which will be later hard to remove. Fan out from any damaged areas-scratches to blend the application.

Novus #1 is generally good for just upkeep, and placing a nice shine on the surface, removing fingerprints, etc. It contains very little, if any abrasives. Mark
