    I have scratched my plexi. Is there any way to remove the scratch?

    novus

    novus 1-2-3 polish works wonders--get it and some lint free cloth

    the dangerous way is to melt it smooth.....DONT DO THIS!!!!!

    I had a tiny scratch in the acrylic door on my case - I managed to successfully polish it out use T-Cut colour restorer for car paintwork. Just be gentle and only use a tiny amount.

    Can I use toothpaste? I have heard about someone who did that

    That 'whitening' stuff might work, dunno if I'd wanna try it though - could be a bit rough.

    :confused:

    Don't quote me on this, but I think that the toothpaste trick only works on really small/light scrathes. And it actually just more fills in the scratches so they aren't as noticeable. I don't think it actually removes or polishes out the scratch. Novus is definitely the way to go.

    Chrome polish works good too. Specifically Blue Magic chrome polish.
