    Door Handles - Scratches-Which Polisher

    Megs 105 and a terry cloth will work well. SMAT polishes are nice when working by hand because you don't have to break them down. Just stop once the defect is removed. Once complete, throw some opticoat or cquartz in there to increase scratch resistance.
