If you’ve ever been frustrated by scratches marring the surface of your clear plastics, whether it’s the windshield of your ATV, motorcycle, or even safety glasses, fear not! YouTube channel sixtyfiveford will walk you through the steps to restore clarity and remove scratches from various types of clear plastics like polycarbonates, plexiglass, Lexan, and more.
Clear plastics are ubiquitous in our daily lives, from safety equipment like face shields and safety glasses to automotive components like windshields and gauge clusters. Over time, these plastics can accumulate scratches and scuffs, impairing visibility and diminishing their aesthetic appeal. Fortunately, with the right tools and techniques, restoring these surfaces to their former glory is possible.
Before diving into the process, gathering the necessary tools and materials is essential. You’ll need buffing wheels, a variable-speed polishing tool (such as an angle grinder or drill), and a polishing compound. The recommended compound for polishing clear plastics is Tripoli, a reddish-brown abrasive compound commonly used for polishing metals like aluminum.
