Sand it 
In Response To: Installed on the boat with Sunbrella UV cover ()
() You can clear up polycarbonate with sandpaper and then polish it. Start with 250 then 1000, 2000 and polish
Our saloon windows are Lexan. When it gets cloudy and a few scratches we sand it and polish it. Looks like new again.
