i got this powder from a friend at a glass cutting place, its a browny colour and when you mix it with water it goes to a mud like look, its great at cleaning windows, but i have no idea what its called.

That would probably be rouge which is an iron oxide or plain old rust if you like. You can get it in powder, paste or a bar, it is a fine cutting compound, would probably do the job for the Doc

Hi Doc,
Try Autosol, I know it is a chrome cleaner, But it contains a finer grain of Pumice Then Bon Ami does

Thanks John, will do.

Guys,
as for this screen, it is only out of an old Clubby van but has no pockmarks, scratches etc, it's in great condition except for this fine stain in places. Most visible in sunlight.
It's in way better condition than the one I took out, so if I can clean it, it'll do. :lol:

Doc we us a product called Whiting for the cleaning of windows prior to applying paint for signwriting. This is a very very fine abrasive powder, finer than BonAmi or Ajax. Can get it from Bunnings Paint section. Use it as you would use for the aforementioned, ie. sprinkle a bit on a wet rag and rub like buggery.
