My acrylic Lightforce spotlight covers have seen some very dusty miles, and many hours of sunlight, so they are not looking the best. With plenty of experience renewing scratched and discoloured aircraft canopies, I reckoned I could do a reasonable job of polishing them back to a respectable state. The only problem is the black text across them which could possibly end up being partially or totally removed.

I used Mothers plastic polish, glass polish and Plexus perspex cleaner, and with about 15 minutes of work they looked much better. I think another 20 minutes should have them looking quite respectable.
