This is a nice sumple old boat and I don't want to "restore" it but the
plexiglass windshield is gaily yellowed. Anyone know
where to get a replacement. Probably be worth more than the boat. Lol!

Here's something that might work:

If that fails, you might try doing a small area with one of those kits
they sell for restoring plastic headlight covers. If all else fails,
a very fine polishing compound like 3M Finesse It might work.

My son recently did the Meguiars polish/cleaner process on an older
Saturn he has. The headlight covers weren't really yellow but they were
badly hazed over.

It works but it's not as easy as the advertisements would like you to
believe. Took him about 100 applications over the course of several
days, rubbing the stuff in and then polishing it off. Lots of elbow
grease involved. They still are not perfectly clear but they are much
better than when he first started.


I bought new headlight assemblies for my truck from a place on the Internet
for $70, free shipping. They included new lamps. Only regret is I did not
get the driving light assembly also, after seeing how nice the headlights
look. 1a auto I think.
