Hi Paul



we had some pretty deep scratches on our screen - I got them out using 

Novus - can't even tell they were there now. Think I got mine from 'Pinball 

heaven' - about 6 or so.

I did a small scratched spot. (I won't tell you to use better tape around the edges of the windscreen.)



I used a kit from Aircraft Spruce made just for the job. I just looked up the part number P/N 09-24700 .  You will find it in the "Plexiglas restoration - polishes" section.

Cliff - feel free to  give me any advice you think might help - I'm sure 

it won't  be the last stupid thing I do - it certainly wasn't the first. 

Thanks to those that responded. I have found similar products from Light 

Aero spares in the UK.

Paul,

With the fine abrasive papers, and the polish, don't go round in circles,  or 

you will get a         '' Torvil and  Dean '' effect, best to go ''up and 

down'' so any small residual marks will be  in that plane, and not horizontal, 

which seems to show up more ? [ or you will  be looking thru more of it on the 

horizon ?]

If the scratches are deep, sand / polish a larger area, so as to get a  

gradual ''thinning'' rather than a ''dip''.

Softly, softly, and you can be sure of rescuing it.

Cheers,

Nev.
