I noticed on my panasonic 46pz85u that there are alot of scratches on the black bezel of the plasma. Is there anyway to get any of these scratches out? Ive tried a few things and nothing has really worked.

I have the same problem on mine. Any help would be appreciated. The scratches are hairline only noticable in certain light, but still I don't really like seeing them.
I use Meguiar's Clear Plastic Polish to get rid of hairline scratches in everything from motorcycle face shields to my glossy black laptop case, works very well though I've never tried it on my Plasma bezel. Might be worth a try, it is only like $10 from Pep Boys.

I don't think you'll ever really get rid of the hairline scratches if they only show up in direct light. I'm willing to bet that most here have hairline scratches after the first couple of wipe downs. I would try a really good wax like the one I mentioned in my link or even the the glaze teddyv posted. In my opinion look at any black finish under the right light and you are gonna see scratches.

Yeah, that is good advice. I am starting to think I should just leave well enough alone. Everyone tells me to just not look that close.

I actually have a bottle of that Meguiar's stuff because I used it on my car. I'll give it a try and let you know the outcome. Thanks for the tip.

EEKS! I tried the Meguiar's stuff and have come to realize that any rubbing of that plastic no matter what goo you put on the microfiber cloth will just create more scratches. I just tried it in a small spot and stopped when I saw I was doing more harm than good. Thanks anyway for your advice...it was worth a try. Although, you are correct...it works wonders on your car!

You should use the NXT wax with the purple applicator. Try this, in the spot you just mentioned. Put a bit of wax on the applicator and rub the wax into the bezel. As you rub it in lighten up on the pressure. Let it dry and wipe with a micro. If you're using a circular pattern try a left and right or up and down pattern depending on what part of the frame you are working on and see what happens. I'm telling you with a enough elbow grease and the right touch you will have a bezel that will look like a black hole.

You are a genius! I tried it on my lunch break and you were right...the purple pad and just the right touch did fix it. Thanks a million. You have made me a VERY happy girl!
