    Default Novus Plastic Polish & Towels

    I tried the Novus 1,2,3 system and it works great the problem I have though is with Clear Plexi or Lexan (which ever is on these Pachislos). Removing leaves what we call in the detail world "Micro-Marring". I believe it is from the towels used to remove the product.

    The Novus came with some paper towel like towels, but even they leave some micro-marring in certain light.

    I have tried Microfiber (Thick, Thin, & Suede), Cellulose Microfiber, 100% Cotton, & Micro-Zorb with none giving me 100% satisfaction on a crystal clear finish. I only notice it on the inside of the plexi and I am guessing it is because the overhead lights hit is just right.

    To most if probably looks fine, but I want it perfect. Any ideas on a truly scratch free towel? I will probably try an optics cloth next.

    Well after repeated tries with different towels today I found the paper towel like item supplied with the Novus kit to be the best.

    And also to remove it gradually. Apply remove and Apply remove using less and less No. 2 until desired results are achieved.

    Did you try cheese cloth, you can find it in Wal-Marts automotive section. It works good on plexi-glass?
