Make sure your using a good towel.

Only things I know of for lexan is the Novus line, and Plexus.

Re: How Do U Get Scratches Out Of A Lexan Window?

I used the Novus 2 & 1 products with a wool pad on my electric drill. In thirty minutes I had both of my Civic lens looking like new, same on S10 and Camry. Both Civic lens were quite yellow. I know that's now Lexan, but the product is a good cleaner. I believe rubbing by hand would be quite time consuming and less productive than using the drill.

Re: How Do U Get Scratches Out Of A Lexan Window?

i wasnt usin a buffer tho. i used the novus stuff and from what ive seen is some bullshit. it says its stactic free clean but if i rub my arm against it u can here the poppin like u would if u got shocked by some metal. and i figure that the scratches werent really scratches. there are some there tho but the swirls looked like residue left over from the novus stuff butt i can get it off no matter how much o rub it with those cloths it came with.
