I have used the Novus products with very good results. Novus #3 for
heavy scratches and Novus #2 for light scratching. They are available
from ACS for $6 to $7 in 8 oz. bottles. You rub it in by hand with a
soft cloth. It works very well with little effort. Novus #1 is a
plastic cleaner.

Dear Listers,
During the fitting of the Plexiglass canopy on my RV-8, I managed to
put some pretty disheartening scratches in the windscreen section.
You can see from the pictures that they looked pretty bad. A call
to Van's revealed that a replacement canopy would be $640 + $250
shipping to California! Ack.
So what to do... A bit of surfing and I found this "Scratch Off"
windshield repair kit for $35 on the Aircraft Spruce web site:

Frankly, it just seemed too good to be true. Nothing for $35 could
be that "magic" I thought, but what did I have to lose at this
point....
