COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR RESTORING AIRCRAFT WINDOWS AND OTHER POLYMERIC SURFACES HAVING OPTICAL PROPERTIES

摘要

Restoration methods for effectively restoring the light transmission and optical clarity properties to polymeric aircraft windows or other high optical polymeric surfaces. The methods restore optical polymeric surfaces damaged by scratching, UV-induced oxidation or high speed impacts. The methods employ a polishing composition and optionally a lusterizing composition, each having particles selected so as to polish and lusterize optical polymeric surfaces. After polishing and lusterizing, a UV protective composition that forms a hard UV protective coating is applied to the optical polymeric surface.
