I have used to repair a DVD that my daughter slid movie side down across the kitchen floor a few times. ohhawk Jul 27th, 03, 8:35 PM If you have a Harley Davison shop near you might check them out. I used two different products made by Novus. One was the fine scratch remover and the other the polish. Good product used by some fussy bikers. Peter F. Jul 27th, 03, 11:28 PM Before buying anything try some toothpaste. I used it to clean up the lens for my car and I thought it was junk before I started because it was scratched badly and had overspray and such on it. Peter RC 70 Jul 28th, 03, 1:16 AM Depending on how badly your lens is scratched, I would not use brasso or toothpaste if you just have minor superficial scratches. Try the product that Dick recommended. It is actually made for plastic scratch removal. RAGTP66 Jul 28th, 03, 2:52 AM For the scratches I would try a prodict from MEGUIARS they have for plastic parts there are 3 steps total to it one is a cleaner the other is a polish and i forget what the 3rd step is but it works VERY well i used it on my rear convt plastic window that you could not ssee a thing out of and it brought it back to crystal clear i was impressed. any good motorcycle shop also would sell acleaner/polish kit for helmet shields that would work well but i have used the meguiars stuff on my own car and it worked great RAGTP66 Jul 28th, 03, 2:56 AM here this may help more meguiars partM-1708 plastic cleaner M-1008 polish and M-1808 detailer Greenacarina Jul 28th, 03, 5:32 AM I like Novus. There are places that sell it online (TAP plastics, Pinball Resource) Great stuff!!! 67shovel Jul 28th, 03, 9:51 AM I buff them with medium rubbing compound and a wool pad............just like rubbing out paint. They come out perfect. |
