0 Chris@Adams Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 They look pretty deep. Can you catch your finger nail in them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 07RS4 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 ^^^This What material is the console made of? Plastic? Need a few more details....but I would experiment with a black 4" pad and revive, on a PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 xabo Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 I believe it to be plastic.....although Mercedes touts it as "Birdseye" wood trim. No my nail will not catch on the scratches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 07RS4 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 So just surface scratches huh. Have you tried anything yet? My recommendation was a very mild set-up, you could even try Revive by hand. Let us know how you fair. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Chris@Adams Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I agree I would try Revive.........Adam's Revive Fine Hand Car Polish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 MichiganSRT8 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 least to most aggressive always, I have use the old white 4" combo and took very minimal surface defects out of BMW and Mercs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 xabo Posted December 1, 2013 Author Share Posted December 1, 2013 Used a little compound with a 4" Orange Focus pad by hand..............Thanks for the replies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 07RS4 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Came out great brother! Did you notice any micro-marring at all? I can't see any in the pic...color me impressed with your work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Rich Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 That was a great save. Looks 100 times better. Good job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Chris@Adams Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 jtrade Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 (edited) Very cool, I guess u could also use this method on other plastics? Like interior door handles which are metal or plastic made to look like metal? I dont own a polisher but if I can do it by hand will pick up some pads & polisher just for interior scratches like this! We have some on the interior door handles I would like to get rid of...

0 xabo Posted December 1, 2013 Author Share Posted December 1, 2013 Thanks for the replies!!.......there was no micro-marring that I could see. I plan to treat the remainder of the trim tomorrow an maybe finish up with a polish and sealant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
