How to clean or light polish juliet plasma frame back to like new condition

[Gjt777]

I am curious on what is the best way to clean my plasma juliet frames or even polish them. They are in great condition and they shouldnt need to much TLC. But I am not sure what the best route to go is. Normally I would send them to the xman but these are in great shape and I feel it shouldnt take much to get them to 100%. I am also interested in the process to clean up the polished frame as well.

No that would destroy a good frame. That’s definitely not what you want hopefully anyway. On a serious note Post up a picture of what it is you are trying to clean to see if it can be cleaned or if it would need a re finish.

Dawn soap, cold water, and a very good drying process.

This will get them clean, if there are scratches then re-finishing is your likely path.

You can't really tell in the pictures but the best way I would describe it as it looks more dull then my other plasmas

I've cleaned my frames with very hot water, dish soap and a microfiber towel. the stripped frames I even dunk in boiling water but I don't recommend that as I worry that it would accelerate the breakdown of the nose bridge rubber. I even use a brillo pad for the earstem sections under the earsocks. they do come out lighter than when they go in.

Thanks I definitely noticed a difference with the hot water and dish soap. I was hesitant to even to that because I dont want to wear the nose bridge gasket out! I had just set them to dry in front of the fan before I ready your message. I will probably try to lightly dremel them tomorrow with some meguires ultimate polish as well to top it off.

Any recommendations on cleaning lenses? Most of the time I would use soap and run my glasses under hot water but I feel if I do that regularly with the xmetal line i will be needing to many tuneups.
