I recently purchased a second Cube (250$ canadian; I bragged about it in a previous e-mail). Since I was not currently in need of a second Cube, I lent it to my sister. My sister returned the Cube to me yesterday, and the case was full of scratches. I don't want to get into the details right now, however, I don't have to tell you how I felt. I decided to use some car turtle wax and see if I could buff out the scratches. Sure enough it worked!! The wax will not remove deep scratched, however, shallow scratches can be removed. The turtle wax does not damage the case in the least bit, in fact, it embellishes it greatly. Be warned that you have to put some work into it. Simply apply turtle wax to a dry cloth and start polishing. It takes time and energy; the longer you work at it, the nicer the results. Hope that others can benefit from this trick. Phil
