Question about those pesty slab hairlines???

Is there any sort of safe material/solvent that can be used on a PCGS or NGC slab to remove those pesty little hairline scratches on the slabs that won't cause any potential damage to the slab? You know the ones that aren't really visible until you try to view the coin under lighting and rotating the slab.image

    Brasso. Label even says its good for removing scratches from acrylic watch crystals. There have been at least a dozen threads on this topic. Do a search for more information.

    I keep a tube of GS-27 Scratch Remover on my desk. It's an automoblie scratch remover, cheap and works very well. Mike

    I have used slab renew and was very pleased with the results, I believe a forum member sells it on ebay.
