Re: Stainless Scratchs

["jtrealty@xxxx " <jtrealty@xxxx>]

You could try sandpaper on the deeper scratches. It may sound radical 
but remember that the graining on the ss is just scratches but all in 
the same direction and same depth. Be very careful to stay in the
same direction as the grain, if needed use masking tape as a guide
and 
go back and forth in very straight lines. Start with about #80-#100
grit and go LIGHTLY. If you are happy with the results work up to 
about #220 and then finish with a "scotchbrite" pad. The ones the 
delorean suppliers sell is aout the best coursesness. If the area is 
flat use a backing block to keep the pressure even. You might want to 
experiment on a less noticeable area first to get some practice.Also 
work the area out into the surounding area.

My question is, what would be the best method of removing these 
scratches by hand? I have a show coming up this weekend and would 
like to remove these scratches before that time. Most of the 
scratches are very small and I believe that they can be removed very 
easily. However, some (more than I would like) are a little deeper 
and may be a problem to remove - after I work on it for a little bit, 
I will have a better idea about how deep they are. Can someone give 
me some quick suggestions on how I can remedy this issue.
