Most silver polishes, e.g. Silvo, work well.. regards. Alan T
I've not tried it, but there is a technique described in the IMAA High Flight archives about scratched windshields. Volume 4 No. 2. Cheers, Fred McClellan the dash plumber at mindspring dot com
Does it involve using toothpaste as a polishing compound?

Most metal polishes work. I've use 'Brasso.'
Check Aircraft Spruce for some plastic cleaners and polishes.

Thanks for all the great tips guys!
Many years ago a friend of mine used Brasso to polish the scratches from perspex
- might work with plastic.

Just kidding. I used to use a product of the windshild of the full scale Cherokee I owned. I forget the name though.
