Question 1

Will this remove fine scratches on my glasses?

Accepted Answer

This is a mild abrasive, it does not "fill in" scratches, it removes the material around the scratches and polishes. A lot of plastic lenses have been "coated" to make them scratch-resistant, and this will remove the coating. If your only other choice is to replace the lenses anyway, you could give it a try.

Question 2

Does it remove the stickiness that develops on 'sueded' plastic coatings? I have an expensive lamp & sev'l thumb drives that are too sticky to touch.

Accepted Answer

No, that is not what it is designed to do.  The sticky coating on your item is a natural process of the soft suede (as you put it) material applied to the surface.  It gradually breaks down and becomes the sticky mess you now have.  The breakdown usually occurs after about five years, but will occur sooner if the product is exposed to excess heat.  The only known way to completely solve the issue is to use a mild solvent that will remove the surface coating completely.  However, any labels, patterns or printing on the item will also be removed.  You can reduce the stickiness by applying baby powder or corn starch to the surface and gently rubbing it in.  Unfortunately it may detract from the appearance of the item, but the stickiness will be gone.

Question 3

There are mixed reviews on fixing CDs. Does it work just putting on and wiping off?

Accepted Answer

Hey. You’ll need to put a few big drops on the CD and then buff it into the surface. You may have to repeat the process a few times. I use a a small car wash towel to apply and a terry type microfiber towel to polish off. I then use a second microfiber towel to do a final wipe down. The CD is headed to my computer to be ripped and I don’t want any problems.

I use Exact Audio Copy and convert to FLAC. The program will tell me if any errors remain after the rip and conversion. If they do, I can usually fix them with Cue Tools. The optical drive in my computer is real touchy about scratches. If the CD is surface is still causing errors, I will repeat the process above using more solution and wiping a little moe vigorously than I had before. I don’t need the CD surface to look new. I need it clear enough to rip without errors I can’t fix.

I hope this helps.

Question 4

Has anyone tried this on an Apple Watch face?

No. Is it a polymer or glass?
