Dear all wonderful Apple Watch Owners,
Wish to share an experience that is frustrating, annoying but at the same time enriching and satisfying!!
On a usual Saturday morning, the wife was going through school work of the week with the kid and preparing for upcoming week stuffs. As my son turned his body wanting to pick up the ruler, the hand that was holding mechanical pencil with the lead protuding swift pass my wife's Ceramic White Apple Watch. Instantly, an ugly stain was stamped on the Ceramic White case! But it's just pencil mark right, eraser it is. Nope, won't work. Isopropyl alcohol then, nope, not working......
Immediately, trying solutions, tips and tricks generally appearing on search engine and various websites. I think like many of us, it just doesn’t work. At least 17 out of 18 of the below list DOES NOT WORK!
Here are the items I tried:
Super delighted to have found a fix!!
Guess no more...1-7 out, 9-18 out. #8 AUTOSOL it was!!
Now at least I know this works with Apple White Ceramic case. There is no loss of shine as well which is amazing!
Naturally, Autosol was the last item I tried, which worked. However I cannot rule out the possibility that there could be one or combination of the others that might have weaken the stain, making Autosol appear easy with that final touch. But I can say that none of the earlier tries have lightened the stainmark, nor changed the stain mark in any way (like start becoming smudgy). When Autosol was applied in small amount, it immediately turn smudgy and with a few rubs the stain is gone!
Hope this can help owners with similar issue. Best of Luck!!
Thanks for reading!
Cheers 🍻
