Quick question...

Just wanted to make 100% sure that Goo Gone is fine to use on the brushed stainless/polished stainless on these watches to get rid of sticker residue? Wont discolor/damage the steel or anything?

Thanks in advance.


p.s. (just venting)

*Sigh*

First day of having this watch... Already a couple hairline scratches on the polished sides of the links, polished sides on the case, and on the polished sides of the clasp/buckle... Pretty much every polished area, lol!

This is the worst part about a new watch, going through the noticing every little thing about it phase. Hahaha, I'm sure I'll be over it in a couple days.

Btw, this watch is AMAZING. In person, it is on a whole other level. =]

Goo Gone wont harm the stainlesson a Rolex but even a casual glance will scuff the PCL's.

Goo gone should be fine just rinse it off. I don't think the goo gone will help get rid of the funny ink stains on your arm though...
