OcalaFlGuy (Bruce) is the Master at polishing Esties. I don't have the threads marked but a search in this forum will turn up his master system for making an Estie shine.

Maybe the method should be pinned? I comes up so often!

One should remember that for every one Estie person who wants their pen shiny, there is another who thinks they are the

spawn of satan for doing that to a pen.

I like you, Bruce, so I only consider you the Brother-in-law of Satan.

 

For those that prefer a less dramatic/ nuclear polish job, a little dab of Wenol on a soft cotton cloth will clean an Esterbrook up nicely.

Others prefer an even less aggressive method, and use a Sunshine or rouge-embedded cloth. Depending on the pen, I fall between these last two.
