Or: Is it possible to remove light scratches in titanium using readily-available items?
But first things first. Apologies all around for asking a question one would think has been asked many, many times before. I searched and found no information more useful than a gentleman who removed scratches from something made of titanium using a metal "ink eraser." I also found some really advanced information and seeing as how I just tried using a lychee to remove the scratches, I'm not that advanced. (Apparently titanium is more abrasive than lychee skin FYI.)
I've got a Benchmade 630 Skirmish. It's a First Production and would've preserved it better had I known more at the time. The scratches aren't bad, and as with anodized(?) titanium are invisible when viewed head on. Off angle they light up like a Christmas tree.
Are the scratches removable? If so, how?
Thanks
