scratch on windscreen

Does anyone know what type of product and where can I buy it. I need to try to remove a couple of scratches from my windscreen.
It wasn't a good idea to put my beach chair behind my seat....

Go to Google and put in "scratch polish for aircraft windows. It will lead you to the correct place

Could probably use that stuff in the infomercial that clear coats over light & deep scratches on sunglasses

I have been using this stuff for scratches on my Harley for a couple of years :

http://www.novuspolish.com/

Use the #3 if it is really bad, and then the #2 to finish up...

( works great on Ipod scratches as well ! )

Hope this helps...

Nick

For only 16 bucks...Should be receiving it soon. Can't wait to try it out. I hope it works...

Ordered the 3 8oz package off eBay and tried just #1 & #2 on the back window.

WOW!!

It cleaned the "white fog" that appears along the fold line at each side and in the middle along with some of the scratches.
(Plexus never could get that fog look out)

Will go with #3 followed up by #2 again this weekend for more of a detailed job, but just wanted to say thanks Nick for the link.

Would this also work to remove scratches on the plastic bumper?

Travis,

Awesome ! I was scared to try the Novus on my back plastic window ( I have the "white fog" as well ) - looks like I will put my order for Renovo on hold and give the Novus a shot come spring. Thanks for being the guinea pig on this one !

I have used Novus on the trunk of my car ( I had some minor scratches from taking the speed humps off ) and it worked great. Not sure of the bumper, though, since I am pretty sure it is made out of a different material ?

Nick
