Default bakelite

hi , here is a tip for removing light scratch marks from radio cabinets ,

a vigurous rub on the affected part with a rubber [eraser]

this idea came to me from a previous life , when we used to remove scutch

marks from the gym floor , by kicking it with our rubber gym shoes.

hope im not making more people suck eggs , regards Maitiu Standun.

Default Re: bakelite

Try using Brasso it removes scratches and gives a really high gloss finish.
