Acrylic top options

As above, my top has the usual crazing/poor finish to the clear section. No other damage or issues, has anyone either had a go at refurbishing theirs or replaced it?

They're very scarce here (not actually seen one for sale), in the US there's options for a core exchange service for new acrylic but that's not really an option from the UK. I've got it wrapped currently but it's be nice to use it as intended.

I was thinking about having a go myself but it's a hell of job doing it by hand. There is a Scottish guy on YouTube who did it. If I can find a link I'll post it👍

Thanks for that, I'll have a watch later. I've seen a few people in the US do similar but the results seem very varied. Some come out looking great, others a disaster! This one looks pretty good but it's hard to tell from a quick glance. Anything is an improvement on mine tbh but I'll be annoyed putting that many hours in for it still to look battered.

Yes me too. I have plenty of time to do it but would be disappointed if it turned out with not much difference. I was lucky enough to find mine in the UK and have not seen one advertised since.
