landwomble 0 Posted October 7, 2009 My Getatwatch titanium's turned up, and it's a peach. Some edges are a little sharp (well, not actually *sharp* but might mark the leather). What's the best product to remove these with? A file's far too aggressive, would something like Autosol chrome polish be a dumb idea? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A file's far too aggressive, would something like Autosol chrome polish be a dumb idea? a fine emery board (such as the wife uses for her nails) should be enough. I've used 'em to cure sharp edges on several bracelets and deployant clasps - be gentle, it doesn't take much.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
houndoggie 58 Posted October 7, 2009 I have a 12 step smoothing and polishing process for this that requires $200 worth of equipment and supplies... ...or you can use the emery board. Both will work just fine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drhulee 0 Posted October 11, 2009 I'd go with AllergyDoc's advice (very fine grit wet sandpaper), the emery board may end up taking off more than you planned, unless you're used to using one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
