[repair]Back of Ipod *Now with Pictures
Average time*1 hour Fine details*2 hours
   I saw a post here asking if An ipod Back face plate could be restored, And I thought to myself "shoot mines hella scratched up as well" So I got out my Sand paper and went to work. And It works Great if you dont care if the S/n aren't there any more... Mine is as good as gold, now its back to that Apple mirror like finish. Will post up pics when I get my Cam working again. *Tips. -Always Put down a soft cloth under your work, or you will scratch the other side. -Try to always sand in one Direction -Don't skip on the wet sanding with 1000+ Grit for the finishing touches it will look like crap -Do not apply much pressure when doing Final sanding Step 1: Put down cloth to sand on, this is a Must!(trust me I forgot scratched the screen) Step 2:300 Grit for about 5 minutes you can go less or skip mine was in bad shape had some bigger nicks in it. Step 3:340 Grit gets down so of the nicks the 300 left Step 4:400 Grit Step 5:1000 Grit... wet sand a must. Step 6: optional Sand with anything 1000+ Posting pics soon any questions on how its done just ask. P.s. I think if you started with a 1000 Grit and you didn't have any real bad scratches you could do this with out losing logo or S/N's

I know its sloppy sorry I was in a rush and I will look better own I get the cam working I will make this in to more of a guild.
My step dad has the charger and its dead thats my problem I will see him next week... Thanks for the shield thing looks cool might get one. also I would like to add that I can still see my logo its just very transparent... But all and All it looks great way better then spending like 20-40 bucks for a new Back plate this was free

Wait, you sanded it? Why couldn't you just buff out the scratches?
