Question about cape-cod cloth.

Can I use it on my ipod? To buff out the scratches on the mirror side

Curious thought Monte...

The mirror side on my Ipod scratches just looking at it. It was so nice when it came out of the box.

I had a silicone skin on my ipod the whole time since I got it, I think its the dust between the case and the skin that scratched the ipod.

I just realized its got scratches when I took it out of the case.

You are right, that thing is so fragile, I wonder why they didn't put some coating on it.

So can I polish it with a cape cod? Will it look mirror shine after I polish it or should I not bother.

Try it. If you don't like it, you can always make it into a brushed finish.

That or a green or white Scotchbrite pad will work.
