Hello,
I used Novus on an old MIJ floor tom. I cleaned it, thoroughly and then used Novus #2 to really shine it and to be able to tell where the deeper scratches and blemishes were.
I then used Novus #3 (on the deep scratches only, not all over) and followed the instructions. When I went to buff it off, it was very difficult, and left a white, paste-y residue on the wrap. I went back over it with Novus #2 and the residue was still there! It looked like scuffs on the wrap. I then polished with Novus #1 and no dice. Still there.
I went back with Novus #2 and scrubbed the be-jesus out of the wrap (with my microfiber, non-scratching cloth, of course!), using right angles as well as a circular motion. That got rid of 95% of the remains of #3, but there are still a few minor spots that just look like scuffs that were NOT there before I started. They are minor and I am happy enough with the results, but still.
Has this happened to anyone else? Did I do something wrong? Please enlighten me!
Thanks,
V
