[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 785482, member: 24160"] If it were a windshield, I'd say go for it. Have had some rock dings repaired with those type of products and they do a pretty good job at it. Would definitely not try it on a monitor screen without first trying it on some inconspicuous area of a window to see how it works. The Polywatch: my guess is that one will [B]not[/B] work at all. It says specifically it is for plastic and works by actually melting the plastic and moving it around to fill in the scratch. I'd be curious to know what's in it, as the solvents I'm aware of that will melt plastic will also cause a clouding effect on clear plastics. You may also find a couple of these type products at your local auto parts store. For windshields they typically are used for filling cracks and not scratches. [/QUOTE]
