Window Polishing

Acrylic and glass returned to optical clarity.

What is window polishing?

Window polishing removes hazing, fine scratching and crazing precursors from acrylic cabin windows and glass flight-deck panels, restoring optical clarity without replacement. Acrylic is soft and unforgiving, which is why it is a dedicated service with its own chemistry and pads.

HOW PRICING WORKS

Scoped to your airframe, confirmed by a person.

Window Polishing scales with aircraft class and condition, so we do not publish a sticker price. Use the AI calculator on the services page for an instant estimate, or send the booking request — our team reviews the aircraft and comes back to you with the final price before anything is scheduled. Nothing is ever charged without your approval.

FULL SCOPE

  • Per-window assessment: haze, scratch depth, crazing check
  • Acrylic-safe multi-stage polish, dedicated pads per window
  • Flight-deck glass polished with glass-specific compound
  • Sealant applied for UV and rain protection
  • Window-by-window condition log to the aircraft record

APPROVED MATERIALS

  • Acrylic-specific polish systems, never glass compound on acrylic
  • Fresh lint-free suede per window
  • Anti-static finishing sealant

QC CHECKPOINTS

  • Optical check against a lit grid from inside the cabin
  • No polish residue in window seals or reveals
  • Crazing suspects photographed and flagged, never polished over

WHAT THIS PROTECTS

Cabin windows are a five-figure replacement each. Polishing at the hazing stage costs a fraction of replacing at the crazing stage.

Questions owners actually ask

Can scratched acrylic always be saved?
Light and moderate scratching, yes. Crazing — the fine internal crack network — cannot be polished out, and attempting it makes it worse. We tell you which one you have before any work starts.
