perspex ones can be buffed up though iirc... could eb wrong about this though

Ask the twins mate. They got them. I must say it made a HUGE difference. You don't notice just how 'milky' your old ones get!

if you want them scratch resistant, have you thought of laminating them or getting some clear film on the outside of them?

maybe im clueless on the matter: on my convertible it has a plastic rear window which had lines and milkyness on it! came with this toothpaste stuff in the boot, which i cleaned it with, and came out much better
the window is made of a thin plasticy flexible material which had lines on it from when folding down. the toothpaste stuff i used is made by BMW and can be bought at a dealer. there are probably other similar products out there on ebay, in halfords, from valeting suppliers etc.

dont know if it would work on poly-c windows or not, but maybe worth a try? i think its around £8 a tube, there is quite a bit in there too.

What about the perspex they use on boat cuddys..surely they have to be scratch resistant with all the salt that is thrown up onto them from the waves. Im sure my old mans boat had them and they stayed very clear. Just a thought

Perspex is easy to remove scratches from though, any polish will do, nothing too harsh though IMO

Polycarb is trickier though, but more resistant
