Removing Scratches From Side Window

Has anyone here ever used this product or something similar for their plexiglass side panel window to remove scratches? I used some wipe to take off the dust and all I did was create swirls of scratches  :unsure: later realized acrylic scratches very easily. Also, a big no-no for using Windex. Oh, and my side panel window is not tinted if that matters.

 

Would really like to know. Thanks.

If its really badly scratched could you not just replace the side panel, assuming its easy to remove, perspex isn't that expensive?

Even if you manage to remove the scratches new ones will emerge after you clean the window with a cloth. The only thing, which is a permanent solution for the problem is using a glass window instead of a plexiglas one.

That may work but it's not badly scratched. Just little scratches that swirl a bit. It sort of annoys me.
