I have had very good luck with 3M fine scratch remover. It goes on like wax, just buff it with a soft terry cloth, by hand for a bit, use a bit of elbow grease, then it'll set up like wax does, and wipe it off. Like I said, I've had very good results. Noname

I used the Quixx acrylic and plexiglass scratch remover. It worked perfect. Completely removed the scratch. The kit comes with fine sandpaper for wet sanding the area and rubbing polish. You will probably need to use the sandpaper as I did, but it simply works. Depending on the depth of the scratch you may need to do it multiple times. Just follow the directions and I'm sure you will be pleased as I am. I got it at Walmart for around $8.00.
