I was wondering, how do you go around removing small light scratches from
clear plastic parts such as windows?

Hand polish with a piece of used Bounce fabic softener sheet, followed
with a hunk of clean flannel to remove any waxy residue.

If you can get to a beauty supply shop look for the polishing boards
with three parts. One of those will get you a long way to removal.
Dunking the 'glass' in Future should finish the chore.

I have had success by using MICRO MESH abrasive paper which goes down to
12000 grit. start off with about 2400 and then work your way down. finally I
give the canopy a rub down with gel toothpaste and a soft polishing cloth.
works for me. best of luck regards JimboD

For small scratches, I buff them on my pants leg. Denim works the best.
For deeper scratches, I wet sand with very fine wet/dry sandpaper, and
then buff them on my pants lag.

Johnson's floor shine will hide the scratches. Also has a million other uses
I'm told such as fixing tranparent parts in position without risk of
smearing.

Apparently it's good for polishing the floor with as well, but I have my
doubts.

What's the point of polishing a floor? It's only going to get dirty again.
