    How to remove scratches from B&W speaker stands?

    As the title asks, the stands are all metal. I have some scratches from heavy stuff hitting them while moving. Anyone know how to remove the scratches?

      As the car detailing guys would say on the car detailing forums, we need to see pics of the type of scratches to recommend proper removal. When I brought home a demo pair of 683's the one had a scuff down the entire side. At that point I was going to keep the demos and not order new so I simply used some non abrasive diminishing car polish to buff it out. I wound up ordering new anyway, heh.

      Metal? What type of metal? Is it a polished metal or more like flat aluminum look? I'm sure there's a way to get the scratches out.... But you'd most definitely need the proper product and technique for the specific job...

        It's speaker stands. The same course cast iron that all the other metal speaker stands are made out of. I'm not sure if you were suggesting it or not, but non-abrasive products are out of the question. This is iron. It takes a lot to put a dent or scratch on cast iron. If there is a way, I haven't been able to find it on the internet.

          Scratches on RR-1050 remote's clear lens
          by kneptune
          The 1098's RR-1050 remote's plastics lens which covers the LCD display seems to be sensitive and easily scratched (I'm talking light scratches, which some might call "spider" scratches - obviously a deep scratch or gouge is a different thing).

          Has anyone discovered/used...

          B&W Sound Anchor stands, thoughts and photos

          Hi,
          After a long internet search, I decided to purchase a set of Sound Anchor stands for my rear B&W 803S speakers. I’m posting these photos because during my search for plinths, I found very few good photos of the actual product I was trying to research, to include even on the SA website....

          by RoMan
          Hi all,

          Can anyone recommend any good amp stands for the RMB 1095 and RB 1090? I seen a pic on Audiogon where he had 2 RB 1090's stacked on a metal stand. That looked pretty cool.

          Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated. I am in the market to look for some...

          Veneer Scratches!
          by EastCoaster
          Well, it was bound to happen... My cleaning lady removed a accoustical panel for "dusting" and scratched the Rosenut finish on one of my 805S. After inflicting the required beatings on the offender (just kidding) I found two thin 1/2 inch scratches that unfortunately show up white-ish in...
