    Well...... I was doing laundry and had some free time to myself while waiting for the laundry to finish (I was BORED, okay? lol)
    So I decided to polish the backside of my wife's old ipod touch, this is the 1st generation ipod touch and is about 3 1/2 years old, I did not get pictures of it before hand because I wasn't thinking about posting this up, but I polished it and got amazing results. I even opti coated it LOL

    Tools used:
    Griot's Garage 3" polisher
    Meguiar's 3" MF pad
    Meguiar's M105
    Optimum Opti-Coat
    Lake Country CCS Red pad
    Plush MF towel

    This before shot I pulled off of google, it resembles the condition my wife's ipod was in:

    And after with opti coat applied:

    Just for kicks, this is what my MF pad looked like afterwards:

    So there you have it, it is possible to polish up ipod touch after all, haha.

    Surprisingly, no, lol.
    The only reason why I polished it up is because I'm looking to sell it (Bought my wife a new one), and I want it to restore the chrome somewhat to get a little better selling price, lol
