Have chanced upon Thomas Plaza DIY store and found they have the stocks available and bought one but haven't try it out yet. Price at $7.90

For those members who wish to get it may try there as there are still 7 to 8 packs left.

Cheer.

For those no time to go there, can try http://www.watchwerkz.com.sg/accessories.php#12 only S$0.60 more expensive. Last time i bought one from one of the pre-owned watch shop near to chinatown also at S$16...so expensive

Good trial and error, and thanks for sharing.

I have used the cape cob to polish my wife's TT DJ, wow, at instant when the cloth touches the gold polished surface, you can see the 'red' tarnish disappear, the watch is now look like brand new. The trouble of masking taping the DJ is worth the effort.

I sold the idea to my buddy and he let me polish his tarnished Daytona TT, this time I did not mask the watch, just carefully polish the gold parts, the result is so good that he bought me dinner that evening...

yo folks, so darn frustrated that i could not locate the box & papers of my PO so decided to take my babies out for a little cleaning. didn't realise that the AR coating on my brother's Sinn U2 had some hairline scratches. since i was peeved and my wife was busy with wii fit, i did a search on DIY removal of AR coating in WUS forums & discovered that capecod is also an alternative to removing AR coating.

So decided to try it on my brother's watch. as i swirled the capecod round with considerable strength.after 20mins, i realised that the crystal started to get really bluish and smudgy, i knew i was in deepsh*t. then i quickly used the oakley cleaning solution and cleaned up the crystal. lo & behold, the ar coating was GONE i am not kidding.all hairlines were also gone. all that remains is a perfect sapphire crystal free of scratches. from today onwards, gonna try on all my watches with my AR coating.

disclaimer: DIY removal of AR coating of yr watches is done at yr own risk.

i will update further once i get my dremel tool for buffing of watch cases but def not on my babies. perhaps try it on one of my seiko chronos.

lots of capecod left at DIY@Marina.

there's another brand of cloth that's purportedly far better than cape. brand is pioneer or shinco if i recall correctly. do a search using "polishing" at WUS forums.

Power tool is difficult to handle, and it required alot of skill and patient... wish you luck.

Thanks will try to look out for the pioneer and shinco...

pls dun bro.. i actually tried the capecod on my seiko's brushed portion. (just for the sake of trying..)
it went from brushed to chrome in a matter of minutes!
dun know if it's the quality of SS between the two or the amount of strength applied.. but i've been there, done that, with my own hands!
now my seiko chrono..

on the contrary, i tried it on both bracelets but controlled strength in buffing off the liquid. scratches gone and the brushed surface still remains the same. pity i dun hv a digicam otherwise can take some macro pics to show u.

u r absolutely rite in saying that the quality of the ss and amount of strength applied are variable components in altering the look of the metal.

anyway, both bracelets look brand new so i'll prob wait another 3 months or so to touch up on my SD bracelet. i def won't use gentle looking at the way my wife wears the SD, it's pretty nerve-wrenching at times.

Any idea how RSC removes the scratches on your watch?
