« on: September 01, 2021, 04:54:12 PM »

@Like50,
for small scratches I use (don't laugh) nailpolish.
Is available in any shade and covers pretty well.

They make a clear plastic polish. I use it on my pitted windscreens. The one I'm currently using Meguiars Plastic X.  I use a little 5" ramdom order electric buffer. If the scratches are through the paint Ruffus idea sounds like a good fix.
