How to remove scuff on targa top?
I have a light scuff on the outside of my targa top. Any advice on how to remove it? The mark is light and looks white. It appears to be on the surface only.

I have a scuff on the edge of mine. I think it's actually a section of the lexan being chipped out. Very small, not sure how to fix it.

You can use a very mild polish like Plexus (sp?), anything more aggressive tends to cause problems.
Lots of glass products can harm the plastic.
Individual scratches, that look white from the outside, can sometimes be "filled" by drawing a line inside them with a black Sharpie, not a perfect match but better than you might think.

I high speed polished (1500rpm) with two stages of Meguiars Polish and all the scuffs and scratches disappeared. Followed up with some Rejex and 3 years later it still looks new.

Novius I think is how it's spelled they have 3 grits use the finest possible first and see how it goes before you get to agressive.
