Fogged Plexiglass
(1/2) > >>
jorbond:
I am in the process of converting an old cabinet to a mame cabinet and i wanted to remove the paint off of the old plexiglass that went over the monitor since it would be to expensive to create a new one. This worked great except for the fact that now the whole piece has a haze to it. If I put water on it then it will look clear until it dries.
leapinlew:
sounds like it's has fine scratches. A long shot here - but car wax?
danny_galaga:

plexy can go foggy over time, usually in outdoors situations. if thats the case, its had it. but if its fine scratches like leapinlew says the wax could do it especially since you say it goes clear with water on it...
Kevin Mullins:
Yeah, go with the wax and polish it out.  Plain ol' wax.

Just don't use any kind of "polish" that has a "grit" rating or chemicals.
RandyT:

That "Novus" plastic polishing stuff might be what you want there.  It works great, but how well it works on your piece will depend on just how damaged it is.
