Came up well. That’s the reason I prefer an acrylic crystal. You can repair the scratches without the need of replacement.

You can do the same with mineral and sapphire as well.

Yes, but it's definitely not as much fun. 🤮

Using an abrasive and a polish?

Polywatch makes a specific polish for these, but I use diamond pastes.

Like Archer's method, but a bit different, I go 800 - 2000 - 4000 - 7000 grit then polish with a high quality car solution I read about in a watch forum somewhere, poliwatch never worked for me and it's too expensive, but to be honest after the 7000 grit just the wiping can make a plastic crystal shine

If you neglect the in-between grits, you need to spend more time on a higher grit, so best to go step by step, and to have more fun you can prep multiple watches with masking tapes, and do the steps in parallel

Wow! Guys - ever considered making a youtube video of one of your projects and sharing it here? Would give us a lot more confidence before we have a go at it!

It contains a lot of explicit content, bondage, abuse etc. so I don't think it'd be allowed on youtube
