Where are the scratches? I took a couple of light scratches and over spray off the glass and outer part where the t-top connects to the frame with 00 stealwool. damn i can't think straight today. To tired but try that. You can sand the black part and respray it with flat black or a different color if you want. Hell thats what I'm doing its going to match my red on my car. hope that helps some.

Im not talkinga bout the actual glass, but the outter inch inch and a half where it is black. you can repaint that. And the outside top by the door I plan on painting that. It is like painting anything sand prime and paint. Just dont paint the rubber molding anywhere.
Get a plastic polishing kit from Eastwood! They will look new again.
It really depends on the depth of the scratch. It works really well for interior plastic and tail lights. I have glass T-Tops so it doesn't apply to me. You can buy the polishing kit from any store that carries Eastwood products, however it is much easier to go to www.eastwood.com and buy it there. The cost is around $40.00 for thr complete kit!

That will work, or you can buy the polishing kit item # 13125. If you buy the Autosol or the Plastic Compound #13138, also get a Canton Flannel Buff item # 13056, 13057. It will make the job allot easier! Good luck
