Are they polycarbinate, or lexan? There is a huge diff. in material, polycarbinate is almost impossible to polish due to burning thru the layers. You can sand them & clear coat them for long term appearance.

They manufacture the original f-16 canopies. I believe that CcanDo used them to refinish theirs: http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/g...oration-9.html
"The canopies had been set to the original manufacturer (TEXSTARs) to be reground and coated back to original."
If you don't mind, please post your results after contacting them.
