Are there any websites or written info on how to properly remove scratches and other blemishes. I know about the materials to  use ie... cape cod cloth, a buffing stick etc... I'm afraid to use them, because with out the  proper instruction, I don't want to ruin any of my collection. It wpuld be nice to have reference material to go back and check up on. Thanks
