The Novus polish is excellent if you use all three as directed. I got some years ago from the US as I couldnt find a supplier in Australia at the time, it was to clean and polish the playfield on my pinball machine but now I use it all the time on a multitude of plastic items. Its great for polishing the plastic speedo and gauge lenses, brings them up like new.
If the scratches are deep than wet sand them out and use the Novus to polish afterwards and theyll look like new.
