how can u remove scratches of bottles
I know finding a flawless bottle is pretty scarce. Stains, scratches and even chips show its true age. Even some won't buy a tumbled bottle. I used to be like that but I'm coming around. If the bottle is too far gone I leave it that way. Just a thought. What bottle are you trying to repair scratches on?

I really don't think you'd ever remove all scratches, especially deep ones, on most of my dug bottles I'll clean them as best as possible then let them dry, then I use Mothers Mag polish with a soft cloth and while it's still "wet" with Mothers, I then use 0000 steel wool and rub away with it for a while, then go bak over it with the same cloth with the Mothers, then clean it with a clean soft cloth, it really works well for me, a light rub of baby oil will cover in the deeper spots and scratches, I know most don't or wouldn't use the oil, these are just on my personal bottles, I wouldn't use oil on bottles I intend to sell or on rare bottles.
