Default Removing blemish from canopy

Got just a smallish scuff on a perfect canopy already installed. Any methods to polish out the blemish?
ThanksQ

I heard car wax also works, but I have not tried it myself

Novus plastic polish is the stuff you want. I bought it online. Costs maybe $20.00, but you'll use it for years.

Default Thank Guys

I've ordered the Novus. I tried Future but it dried unevenly showing sags. Tried airbrushing it as well. I hope the Novus does the job. Thanks for the tips.
