Buffing out scratches in plexiglass

(1/1)

More Cowbell:
Is it possible to buff out scratches in plexiglass? I have a Donkey Kong bezel which has some light scratches and some deeper scratches. Ideas?

Neilyboy:
I think they make some form of finishing for clear plastics (Lexan, acrylics, plexi) I saw a pretty slick tutorial on cleaning and polishing a pinball machine. Im pretty sure its the same deal here they make a few step process to remove scratches (prep. apllication. clean). Im sure someone here has the info you are looking for. I myself have never tried it but I guarantee you can get that DK bezel looking good! While listening to some blue oyster cult that is (joke on your username)

I did a google for "plexiglass scratch repair" and came up with several hits for products and tips.  This one stood out to me as it is from the DIY cable network.   There also seems to be quite a bit of information in Google Groups.

Good luck and try to take some pics and let us know how you make out in your repairs. :)
