[Ti] Scratched TiBook cover - DONT USE TIPAINT!!!!

[robert at elastica.com]

In BAngkok I recently bought a Neoprene cover for my Tibook for $20. When
you get this fixed I suggest you do the same.

I know that peole uses steel wool or brillo pads on ti bike frames but I
think the Tibooks are a lot thinner and more fragile. You should consult
an expert on this one and that's not me.
