Hi John, I have had good luck in some situations, of scratches, by using a Tibet Almond Stick by Zenith. I got it at one of the conventions, although the company will sell it by the case. Zenith Chemical Works, Inc. P.O. Box 127 Addison, Illinois 60101 It has come in handy a few times for an inadvertent minor scratch. I have been tempted to carry some to sell, since when people see how well it works, they want one. I just never got a ROUND TUIT. Regards, John M.
