Silver Miner at Large
I just completed my first attempt at polishing out the scratches on a turntable dustcover. I picked the least expensive TT in my current inventory, yet the most damaged (no gouges, but enough scuffs and scratches to be almost translucent). It turned out so well that I have been requested to post it here for others to benefit from. The process involved supplies that I obtained entirely from my local hardware store (Ace Hardware), to the tune of $32 US. I have enough of all supplies left to do several more turntables, which I fully intend to do, now that I have found where to concentrate during the process.
I found the process I used at the a site posted by the TurntableFactory.com, which seems to be now defunct. I captured it back in the day and I will quote it throughout and add my own comments.
Please note that I had to rework all surfaces, inner and outer, to do this job.
Here is the 'before' pic of the candidate (a Pioneer PL-400):
