Sure can Some how or other two of my windows on the 260 were sprayed with some type of liquid whick etched into the lexcen. However using 1000 then 1500 then 200 grit paper I was able to sand the damage out. I also did the hatch boards which were very scratched. I finished the job using a very low speed buffing machine and very fine polish followed by even finer again. The result?? Perfect.

Lexcen?

I am familiar with Lexan but have never heard of Lexcen. Lexan is very soft and almost impossible to polish out.

Lexan. The windows in my 260 assuming that is what you call the stuff??? And the scratches come out with the method I have used. Makes like brand new.

Please don't be offended by my comment. My brother is married to an Oz and they live on the Gold Coast. I know when you flush your toilets they swirl in the opposite direction then ours but sanding with 1000 grid first and finishing with 200 grid is stretching it! Cheers
