How do you remove marks on DLC?

The stuff comes in a tin can with the polishing compound infused into some wadding. You just tear off a small piece of wadding and start buffing.

Just did a quick buffing on my 0550BLK again. This was done rather hastily (less than 10 min), but if I had the motivation to put some more time/effort into it, I'd expect all the remaining marks to buff out.

Guys, DLC is hard stuff. When you get marks on a DLC blade, they are almost always going to be material stuck to the blade, not scratches. Use Flitz, Nev'r-Dull, Bar Keeper's Friend or any other mild abrasive to remove the marks. The marks from keys are actually metal deposits because the DLC abraded the keys.
