Cleaning up perspex windows - DemonDriverDan - 20-01-2015

I've got a set of perspex windows that could do with a clean up and removing some of the scratches and general scuff marks in them.


Any recommendations on how to clean them up? Searching on the web has given a few idea such as PlastX (http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/p/car-accessories/car-cleaning-accessories/exterior-cleaning/car-scratch-removal/?549770981&0&)

Meguiars Plastic-X works wonders, best stuff ive found to revove glazing from plastic headlights. Does a decent job by hand but if you use a buff it works wonders.

Have you tried the 3M Headlight Correction Kit?

Used it on some Clio 172 headlights which have a habit of misting badly. Results were fantastic, I'd highly recommend it

Cheers guys. I'm going to try the PlastX first and go from there.

If you do feel brave enough the best way I found was using very high grit wet and dry first with loads of water and fairy liquid(you will find it make it dull but removes big scratches) then use the PLastic-x with a buff it makes it like glass. Be warned though perspex will burn faster than paint with a buff so medium speed and keep moving Smile
