1.Beforehand

You will need either steel wool or a sandpaper. If you are using steel wool, keep in mind that it leaves behind some dirt. If you are using sandpaper, be sure that it is very fine. We will be using synthetic steel wool. Another alternative would be a Scotch-Bright brush.


To start, clean off any dirt on the back of your iPod. Also, before starting, make sure you know what direction you want the brush look to be in. We went with a diagonal top left to bottom right.





2.Scratching

This is mostly self explanatory. Just rub your material in the direction you want. Using steel wool, apply a good amount of pressure. We haven’t personally tested sandpaper, so use at your own risk. Also, you may want to write down your serial number before doing this. Just in case you need it, because it will be less visible after you are done. Also, you must make sure that you do not scratch the wifi antenna- it is plastic and will look ruined if you do so.

3.Afterwards
  

Clean off your iPod. Our iPod got a good amount of dirt from using steel wool. Also, the tiny grooves created in the metal will get dirt in them. You will have to clean the back of your iPod every few weeks to make it look nicer. If you develop uneven scratches from everyday use, just go at it again.
