Here is what Dupont says to do: Removing minor cuts and scratchesBecause the solid beauty of Corian® goes all the way through, Corian® surfaces are renewable. You can remove minor cuts and scratches yourself by following these instructions. First, wash the area where the scratch is located, following the instructions found below, to remove any film on the surface as this film may clog the abrasive pads.

With this surface still wet, start rubbing with the Peach colored side of the cleaning pad. Use a light touch. Pressing too hard may actually leave deeper scratches.

Rub over the scratch using a straight line motion. Periodically switch rubbing direction ninety degrees. Rinse pad periodically during this process to remove any built up residue.Be sure all of the scratch is removed.

Clean top with water and dry thoroughly. Check to see if sanded are blends with rest of top. Please note that sanded area may not perfectly match remainder of top.

If necessary, turn pad over and repeat process. Rub over large area to blend in sanding. If needed, continue the sanding process using the Aqua colored pad and if necessary, the Gray colored pad until the desired gloss level is achieved.

Rinse out all pads used and allow them to air dry before putting them away. An alternative to your refinishing your countertop, is to contact your Corian® retailer or DuPont to arrange for professional refinishing. You can get the pads from:Micro-Surface Finishing Products, Inc.(800) 225-3006Cleaning All Finishes of Corian Most dirt & residue Use soapy water, ammonia based cleaner(not window cleaner), rinse and wipe completely dry.

Commercially available solid surface cleaners, such as Clean EnCounters® will also work well. Preventing hard water marks Rinse and wipe completely dry after cleaning; clean up spills before they dry. Removing hard water marks Use a cleaner formulated for removing hard water marks such as CLR or Lime-A-Way.

Difficult residue Spray residue with Deep Cleaner for DuPont Corian® from Stone Care International. Follow instructions on the bottle. Wash area with soapy water, rinse and wipe completely dry.

If residue persists, follow steps below for removing dulling film. Disinfecting Occasionally, wipe surface with diluted household bleach (1 part water/1 part bleach). Rinse top thoroughly with water and wipe completely dry.

There is a forum discussing caring for your Corian countertops ( http://boards.hgtv.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/4841057842/m/4041083403 ). In the forum users suggest you hire a professional to buff the scratches out. Other folks use the same products that you would use to get rid of scratches in a car finish.

We have used automotive buffing compound to get rid of scratches in our bathroom countertops. Sources: http://www2.dupont.com/Surfaces/en_US/products/corian/corian_care.html .

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
