If you get that green bottle 'Turtle Wax' instant stuff that you rub on (thinly), let dry, and rub off with a CD-cloth.. If the scratches are bad, Ive even heard of folx using ultra-fine grit sandpaper before the car-wax treatment but I have not been quite that brave. ernie Ernesto Ikerd, (817) 763-4795 Company Graphics, Dept 17 Lockheed Martin Tactical Aircaft Systems Fort Worth, Texas
