I have a very nice WPT that only needed a clear upper pf to be even better. Bought a new one but removing the old one was much more difficult than I expected. Then I somehow scratched the new pf...didn't look too bad. After reading about how great Novus 2 was (but never using it) now my nice new pf looks like this. I'm so pissed. I bought microfiber cloths for this so I don't understand why it's worse now than before the Novus. What'd I do wrong? I'm afraid to even try anything else. Difficult to get a good picture but I think you can see the swirling scratches/smudges.

Thanks for the replies and advice. I pressed down pretty hard when wiping off the Novus 2. Bought cheap @ss microfiber cloth on EBay but thinking that maybe the cloth wasn't soft enough I went to an auto parts store and the cloth there doesn't seem any better. I'll have to order some Novus 1. For some idiotic reason I thought 2 would be good enough.

Wife just had a surgery so pinball project on hold for awhile but I'll post some picks when I try again.
