How stricked is ZB about early scratching?
I was worried about "early scratching" and did not want to find I voided a 50%
card. But, with 3 small kids in the house, things get grubby. Being a good
Dad, I always try to keep things clean. Did you know WD40 is a great cleaner?
It will remove cryon from walls without removing the paint (at least on my
walls it works).
In fact, I had to clean my ZB card (one of my kids had touched it ;-) and
noticed if I sprayed a paper towel VERY lightly with WD40 and cleaned the ZB
card VERY carefully it looked real nice and new (no kid dirt on it now). I
know ZB appreciates my efforts to give them a nice clean card - unscratched and
full of mystery and promise. I also noticed some (not all) the "scratch stuff"
melted onto that paper towel. How odd. I also happend to hold the card up to a
very bright light (to be sure it was very clean, of course) and oddly I could
now read the discount %. Darn, 10%.
Now, that was the last card they sent out. Could be this current card version
has anti-WD40 protection and will burst into flames if you wipe it with WD40.
Or it may automatically, turn into a 10% card. So DO NOT DO IT. And do not
email me if you card melts before your eyes. I am sure all ruined cards will
be worth 50% off.
