Hi everyone.

I own a Navi World on steel and wanted to know the "correct" process and/or tips for cleaning.

Your recommendations are appreciated.

Cape Cod is for polishing out scratches, not cleaning. Assuming it's scratches you are dealing with, if you sre working on the bezel area, tape off the crystal so you don't slip and mess up the A/R.

Otherwise, it's simply elbow grease and patience. I wear disposible latex gloves too - those chemicals are pretty nasty.

Sorry...you're right. I'm looking at polishing out the scratches.

Thanks for your feedback.

There are a lot of threads on this as well so looking through some of them will give you a pretty good idea of what people do.
