Hi all,

wondering if anyone encounters scratches on the side window panel casing and what are the methods used to remove those scratches? I google and youtube and found that probably can try use the plastic polish...example from Meguiars?

any other tips? I guess whenever I wipe the side window panel, I just use normal regular cloth and causing those scratches...they are not deep scratches but it is causing the acrylic window not being clear anymore...

thanks!

Tempered Glass is toughened glass that are stronger yet fragile. They are very scratch resistant to normal use...

In the event it crack , it will shatter into million tiny pieces instead of large pieces.

Well you can remove the scratches but it required you to sandpaper it and spray with clear coat,but i think this method is only great is you have alot of scratch,first sand paper the acrylic using high grid sand paper, then put masking tape around the panel, then spray it with clear coat, like samurai 2k clear coat but i think it better is you just buy new one
