    Me and my father use that stuff for our helmet visors. Other than that I do not see it working for harder plastics.

    Meguiars wax had a good platic polish. It came in a smaller white bottle. I was great for plasic conv. windows.

    Yep, scratch-x. Novus is more of a plastic shield polish---very good for that. I used it also on my sportbike windshields (when I had one) and my helmet shield.

    ..to add...if Scratch-X doesn't have enough abrasiveness, buy some 3M polishing compound (keep it well shaken) in the black bottle, it's a little coarser for deeper scratches--then follow-up with Scratch-x. Sometimes it's necessary to use some 600 or 1000 grade wet/dry polishing paper first. I use 600 wet/dry (wetted) then scratch-x to restore my cars headlight plastic covers. Then I follow-up with wax. They look like new.

    If you just have some "spider-webbing" type very minor scratches, Scratch-x should work perfectly.
