Elevator Door Scratches
Recently, my stainless steel elevator door was scratched deeply with a key. A few choice curse words were engraved with this key. Any way to polish out the scatches?

Scratches can always be polished out of metal.
Though it would probably be easier with professional polishing equipment. You should probably consult a local metal finishing job shop.

Dave, Scratch-B-Gone was developed to repair deep vandalism on elevators before it became the recommended solution for Stainless Steel appliances by all manufacturers. We have developed a power accessory process for this type of problem which quickly and permanently restores the original finish with little effort. Even you can and will be able to do this! As a service company also, we are in the field doing this type repair daily. Thanks
