New Windscreen, Question

[kpaul]

Got the Puig Black Racing Windscreen last night and popped it in. Easiest "mod" ever.

My old clear one actually ended up getting pretty badly scuffed when I cleaned it with a brillo pad without thinking. Any ideas on how to make this clear again? I've been thinking about getting a gopro camera and would like to use a tank mount and see through the windscreen. Obviously the black one makes this impossible and the clear one just isn't clear enough to stand up to 720p scrutiny. Thanks.

You could try Autosol :thumbup:

its about all i can think off that will get fine scratches out of perspex.... Mate of mine did the screen on his Valkyrie & it came out OK...... But i would try it on something similar first , just to be safe

I'd recommend that you wet sand it with 1500-2000 grit paper. If the scratches are deep, you might have to begin with a more coarse paper. After this, the screen will look pretty messed up, but don't worry. Now you have to rub it with either Autosol or some other rubbing compound. Use a polishing machine when you do this. After you have rubbed it, it's necessary to polish it, preferably with a polishing machine for this job too. You just use water and a dash of soap to avoid any heat issues when you polish, which isn't a good thing. When that is all done, you finish the job by polishing it with a suitable polish compound.

Hope this helps:thumbup:
