culp686 Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 We have a 90g tank that needs some minor scratch removal. Does anybody have any ideas on the best thing to use to buff this out?(scratch) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobby1212 Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I have a tank that was very scratched and I buffed it out to almot like new. I don't know how scratched your's is but here is what i did. I started with 220 grit sandpaper to take out the deep scratches, moved to 500 grit, 1000 grit, 1200 grit and finally 2000 grit. Then I buffed it with Novus Polish #3 and then #2. I did the whole tank not just spot treatment. It worked very well and looks great. I bought the polish at Tap Plastic.

I tried getting some scratches out with novus but it never worked for me...I think I needed to use sandpaper like you did. You could also take it to seahorse, they will buff it out for you.
