Hi all,
I could really do with some advice on this one. I bought a 61 SG Reissue from 2002 and it has a fair few scratches on it that look fairly unnatural. You can just about feel them with your nail and I'd ideally like to get rid of them, but the nitrocellulose finish concerns me. Can I use simichrome style stuff here or will it ruin the finish? I have tried the Gibson restorative finish cream and it really hasn't done much to remove the scratches, so I wonder how dangerous it might be to try a more aggressive scratch remover? Really appreciate any sound advice. Thanks!
I couldn't link so many pictures so I've done a short video of the scratches on YouTube.
P. S. The final thought is I can just leave it as is but am worried it may not hold its value so well.
