Default kids and acrylic

There's a product used in aviation to remove scratches from acrylic windshields
called "MicroMesh." It contains several different grades of abrasive cloth. The
usual use is to polish with a medium grit or coarser until the scratches are out
and then work through the finer grits until you're really just polishing the
acrylic. It's rather labor-intensive.
