Removing scratches from plastic

[Foxy Stoat seeks Pig]

Any ideas?

I have noticed some light scratching has appeared on 'back bit behind the seat' (very technical I know Anyway picture below of scratches and part of bike I mean.

Would something as simple as T-Cut be effective?

No big drama, not sure how long they have been there but really annoying me now every time I get on the bike

Thanks all.

Buy some stickers to cover them up. They look like they aren't going to go away without paint.

It would depend how deep they are!

But by the looks of it you may fade them a bit but not get rid of them! they look a bit deep

Give T cut a try and see how they turn out

Ok, thanks both, t-cut first then some kind of sticker arrangement methinks.

Have a look in Halfords. Think T cut (or someone similar) did a coloured version which was to help blend in the deeper scratches

Instead of a sticker you could get a piece of wrapping vinyl in what ever colour you wish, even carbon effect if that's your thing, good luck which ever way you go, jeff

i have some silver t-cut on order, worth a try for a fiver. Maybe try vinyl after that, i'm not that keen on stickers on my bike.
