[net.cycle] Helmet visor restoration

rkd@ccieng6.UUCP (05/29/84)

On the (past) subject on helmets, has anyone had any luck polishing out
scratches in the visor.

I currently use Windex cleaner, then Pledge polish applied with clean
cloth diapers.

This method only masks small scratches. To polish plastic, I've heard of
using toothpaste and similar common household fine grit abrasives.

What is the correct method to use?

Any ideas?

PS: Any BMW (R100RS, R75/5) owners out there? I'd like to discuss
maintenance, etc.
