Cleaning slightly cloudy acrylic windows ideas?

[lambohill]

As the title, my cover windows particularly facing the sun are in need of a little tlc. Has anyone used a product with a positive result to say polish out minor scratches and or sun damage? Thanks T

I have a bike site where we / bikers often have a similar issue with windscreens. A member there is a boat valeter / restorer. His method was so outrageous we didn't believe him albeit he was a pro. So he proved it. Rather than explain it because it is incredulous, have a read of the description and then proof. You'll need guts to try in though.

I agree with that. Amy polishing entails removing material with finer and finer abrasives depending on how deep the scratches are. This is of course only for surface scratches not crazing of acrylic windows.

I have done lots of stainless steel polishing and the process is similar the only difference is you must keep the acrylic cool unlike stainless steel
