our windshield is made of high grade acrylic. being acrylic, it could be easily scratched by rough fabric and/or dirt on it (not to mention flying pebbles on the move).

 

although the scratches are somewhat permanent, they can be "polished off" to some extent. there are many types of commercially available polish but make sure you buy those for acrylic and not for glass... google will show you many links.

but if you want something readily available locally, try Autoglym Super Resin Polish, it helps to make the scratches less visible but don't expect miracles. do not polish the whole windshield or risk damaging the non-scratched sections, its a polish afterall.

[firenace]

juz an add-on point for the windshield: for our windshield, its best to wash it with bike shampoo & our hands only. we can juz wash off the sand or other particles on our hand with water b4 washing but if using cloth or sponge, particles may get stuck to it and w/o getting them off, u may cause scratches to the windshield.

use a new / good cloth when trying to 'polish' off the scratches. i'm not sure which type of cloth is suitable but i'm using a 3M fibre cloth for cleaning glass surface at home. not sure if its good for your usage... if its ok, u can find them in those DIY shop like homefix or self-fix DIY store. those r the only 2 places i know. hope it helps ^_^

it did state suitable for clear plastic but i never use dis b4 so i dun dare to reccommend... dis type of spray is mostly use for cleaning, not for removing scratches.

i still goes with scoobydoo's suggestion for resin polish...

Autoglym stuffs are not cheap but not the most expensive though.

personally, i like this brand... use it on my car as well

 

basically, you'll see those fine lines (commonly referred to as "swirl marks") on all bikes/cars when parked under direct sunlight. even with good polishing, there's a limit to how much or how fine the marks are reduced to. probably the only exception is when you paintwork is freshly from the oven where the lacquer is still virgin and untouched by any fabric that may leave the finest of scratch on it.

Day 8: Kanchanaburi to Chumphon

Return trip to Chumphon.

Made a 5hr detour to visit Hua Hin. Wah, here very the angmo. So many tourist.

The beaches here almost like Gold Coast liao. very long and nice.

Visited the Hua Hin Railway Station, Khao Hin Lek Fai (a hill top to view the whole of Hua Hin), Khao Takiab (a seaside Wat and KuanYin Temple, got very good view of the beaches), Wat Huay Mongkol (giant statue of a sitting monk).

Might wanna stay at Hua Hin next time.

 

Reached Chumphon at 5pm. My bad about saying Chumphon has got nothing in my earlier post. Actually got a 3-level shopping mall just 5min behind my hotel! Silly me.

Got KFC, Swensen, MK restaurant, Pizza Company and 1 full level of arcade games, unclude K-box room.

Also, room service massage can be arranged...

 

Day 9: Chumphon to Krabi

Meeting the guys at Krabi today. Don't wanna be late so set off early.

Reached Ao Nang Grand Inn by 10.30am (thai time).

1st time traveled non-stop for 320km (no petrol break). Haha, my butt is iron...

But... they are late! 4.15pm still not here!

Anyway, also saw 2 SG bikes here. 1 FZ1 and 1 CBR. Don't know whose.

 

Tmr, going 1-day Phi Phi island trip (speed boat) at 1100thb per person.
