My sprayhood cover has gone opaque around some of the edges - presumably thru UV.

Is there anything I can do to make them clear again or do I have to replace the windows?

thanks

You may get replies advocating all sorts of buffing agents and miracle potions which will clear your problem,but having been down that route all of them only provided a temporary fix.
In the end I got a new window fitted by local sail maker at very little cost.

Agree about the replacement - got mine done about 3 years ago and makes a difference.

Whilst its being done ask the sailmaker what spray they recommend for protecting it as I think there are different materials used for windows, different conditions etc. We got a spray that was wiped on and seems to have helped but not really enough wear to know one way or the other.
