Default Windshield Plexiglass Scuffs

Does anyone know how to get scuffs/scratches out of the plexiglass windshield. They are very light surface scuffs but bother me. I was wondering if the headlight restoring material would work on the windshield.

Any advice is appreciated

Recommend cleaning with nothing but Plexus and microfiber to prevent scratches in the first place. Not sure on repair/restoration.

Taken from Memphis shades website:

"Memphis Shades recommends the use of Novus #2 to remove scratches."

I bought some of it to remove some small scratches on mine and it does work with some time and effort.

Novus #2 worked like a champ! Thanks for the suggestion. It took a few applications but you cannot tell now.
