trozacky Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 How hard is it to remove scratches in an acrylic tank? What would it cost to have a tank repaired with a few scratches? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timfish Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Yeah, Dapettiit has a good story 'though you may not want to try it after listening to him. You can also talk to Prof at Epic Reef. If you want to try it yourself and you don't want to drain the tank you can get the wet/dry sand paper used for autobody repair in grits from 400 to 3500 then switch to lapping paper in grits to at least 9000. You'll want to use as many grades as possible (at least 10) and plan on getting an elbow or shoulder joint replacement afterwards . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
