I got a bottle of this stuff; and, I must say it really cleans up grungy looking slabs. I removed all the old paper stickers, scotch tape, goo, etc. It does take Lots of labor tho'. I even used it on the PCGS boxes, with amazing improvement.

It's not cheap, but it works.

P.S. Not recommended for "cleaning coins" or applying to body parts that are normally scratched.

why pay that kinda money when simple autopolish does the trick for 3-4 bucks?

Pushkin · October 25, 2003 10:20PM

Pontiacinf,

Some auto polishes do a fair to good job on minor to medium scratches - and some can actually harm the slab by giving it a permanent cloudy appearance. I personally believe that Scratch-Away does a better job, and in general it can significantly improve the look of most slabs - and it is safe for all slabs. I've had better luck with the stuff, but you do make a good point about some car polishes - but not all.

Scratch-Away will not completely remove deep scratches - sometimes a cloth polishing wheel and jeweler's rouge will come close to doing that. This stuff is not cheap, but it is convenient and it works well. I have another product that uses two different compounds, one to improve heavy scratches and the second to finish off the slab; Scratch-Away is a compromise. As for the cost, it comes down to about 25 cents per slab. I lose money selling it for less.

Anyway, thanks for the point and I agree that some auto products can help - others are real trouble. I believe this stuff is superior, but I'm not suggesting your hint is not worthwhile.

Thanks,

pontiacinf · October 26, 2003 3:50AM

For the sake of equal opportunity air time, first let me say that we are all entitled to our own beliefs and we have the right to express those beliefs. We can agree to disagree without becoing defensive or offended! I am an animal lover...all animals-afterall, they are all God's creatures but permit me to tweak your brain while expressing My opinion! Cat's while cute and cuddly to some, cannot compare with the dog when it comes to loyalty with unending courage! A dog will protect you.A dog senses when things are not right and never seems to have a bad day! They love their owners once they have bonded..for life! If you died alone, your dog would literally lie down beside you, protect you and even die with you whereas the cat will eat you! This is a proven fact! I've owned pets of all sorts all my life! Each and every dog has it's own personality, just as people do!Think of all the great dog stories such as,"The Call of the Wild" and the many that legends are made of ! When was the last time you read a good novel or saw a good movie of the heroic acts of a cat? They are very stand-offish and just cannot compare with the dog in the intelligence or loyalty department. A good, well-trained dog is a site to behold while a cat, at best,will perform a few tricks when IT wants to and is NOT trainable or the least bit loyal! Every afternoon at exactly the same time, wild ducks show up at my back gate to be fed. They say animals don't think..I beg to differ. These wild Mallards and their hens show up without fail, everyday....not too shabby for an animal that can't think and will literally run or fly to me when I call them! Point taken?...Point made!! What this has to do with "Scratch Away", I haven't a clue! I guess it was the quote from one of my favorite authors that got me going....besides creative writing -taking off on any given tangent- is another of my "hobbies." In closing, I must concur with my favorite author as a young boy....of all God's creatures the cat is a slave to no lash!

Ya'll are ALL way off the cuff. For 20+ years since anacs slabs the deal is a 5 oz tub of vaseline. A dab on the front a dab on the back. Take thumb and do a very similar car wax job by taking thumb up and down,criss/cross,side to side and circular motions,etc and *POOF* the scratches,even most of the really deep gouging ones are *POOF* gone. Take a wrap or 2 of soft charmin or other tissue ans simply buff like you would a hand car wax job. RESULT: clear non hazed,super cleaned up slabs,best posssible. NOTHING,I REPEAT,NOTHING WORKS BETTER. Cost $1.49 a tub and will do at least 500 slabs or more. (or hell just swipe the gals stuff and use it for free when you need it. Heh, you live and learn. $12 bux+ for 50 slabs,hell that makes a batch of that stuff cost $120 or so for what which a buck fifty will do 10 times more slabs AND a far SUPERIOR job. MOST slab producers of certain markets and most knowledgeable dealers have used it exclusively for decades. Must be a jar in at least 1000 dealers items of needs and supplies that stays readily on hand or the slab shelf. Word spoken. Wise up folks,common sense prevails.

Pushkin · November 27, 2003 4:51PM

<< <i>NOTHING,I REPEAT,NOTHING WORKS BETTER. >>

1. Since you haven't tried the other products - I know you haven't tried Scratch Away - you are just giving an opinion - not stating fact.

2. Vasoline - petroleum jelly - contains sulfur compunds as does many car waxes - and they can turn your slabs yellow over time if not completely removed quickly - just as petroleum jelly has been used to AT coins - the process is speeded up by using petroleum jelly with additional sulfur added - also known as Deller's Darkener!

3. Old wife's tale are fun to tell, but when the plastic starts to turn yellow you just might regret your advice.

4. Thank you for coming into a BST thread and dumping on a product that you haven't tried and know nothing about. But, of course, BS is free.

5. Vasoline is GREAT for helping cats pass hair balls and curing constipation in humans.

As I've stated in other threads, less expensive alternatives that work well are Novus No. 2 and Novus No. 3, both are recommended since one works on heavy scratches and then the other takes care of the finer scratches. Displex is a good product, but it is very expensive. Jeweler's rouge and a buffing wheel will also work, but it takes some time to set up. Extremely fine abrasion (sand) paper will also work if done carefully - best followed by a polishing cream.

I'm not afraid of the competition - but if you want to risk playing with sulfur compounds, well, don't say you weren't warned. I save the petroleum jelly for hairballs.

Regards,

Pushkin
