Rep Power: 25  | Plastic window scratch remover? Not the very light scratches thet a normal cleaner might remove, but something a little deeper. What's the best way to remove them?
Thanks

Rep Power: 12  | Re: Plastic window scratch remover? Simon, try a plastics supplier near you or go on line for other sources of the Novus products. You probably need the number 2 for the scratches you described.

Rep Power: 3  | Re: Plastic window scratch remover? Simon,
I found a UK supplier of Novus here; The Pinball Heaven Online Shop
I use it for polising plastic models instead of painting and would recommend you go for the kit of 1,2 & 3.
3 takes out heavy scratches, 2 is intermediate and 1 is a very fine polish to produce crystal clarity.
Ths site has a starter kit for 2oz of all three for £4.95 or larger 8oz bottles at £16.95 for all 3.
Cheers - Tony |
