Stan,
This topic came up recently on one of the car forums I frequent. One guy
had success using very fine wet/dry sandpaper (used wet), the same stuff they
use in auto body painting, progressively finer, and finally polishing compound.
The sandpaper is available in Pep Boys and the like, and grit rating is in the
thousands (don't remember the exact values). Mine are etched from
our desert sun so I was going to try this soon, and I figure the worst that will
happen is I screw them up and have to replace with new ones anyway! There are
products available at the auto stores for polishing plastic headlight lenses,
but they are not aggressive enough to get rid of the etching.
Just so Gordy doesn't blast me for a non-soaring post, I suppose you can
use this technique for getting rid of frosted canopies on your scale sailplanes
;-)
