How do I get light scratches out of clear plastic?

Hi, this is my first post on automotive forums. Does anyone know a good way to polish all of those annoying little scratches out of plastic windows?

I use a product called Novus, its a plastic polish/scratch remover. It takes some rubbing but eventually it all works out.

I got hold of some "Micro Gloss" it's a fine liquid abrasive approved for use on F-16 fighter canopies. It has 1 micron aluminum oxide abrasive crystals ???? It's made for clear plastics .

It's made by Micro-Surface Finishing Products

You could also try Meguiars “Scratch X”. That stuff works really well on headlight covers so it should work for models as well.
