acrylic scratch removable?

[selki]

can take the deep scratches out? I got few id like to take out many many years later when i empty tank but I made some by accident with driftwood.

are all scratches fixable? no matter how deep it is?

how much should i spend on equipment buffer/pads/novus etc..

The real answer is no. You don't really remove scratches, you remove the material around them. A very deap scratch is going to require significant material removal.

sand and buff

if the scratches don't come off with some NOVUS then i would use 3000 or 4000 grit sand paper and spray tank with water while sanding
