I have a BMW helmet purchased a while ago in a clearance sale. It's been a good buy but the visor now has a stone chip and some minor scratches. I thought I might treat myself to a new visor till I saw the price at £70.
Has anyone polished out the odd mark or can suggest a reasonably priced supplier?
The visor is of the double skin pinlock variety.

which model is it?
https://www.thevisorshop.com/Mobile/en/gb/BMW/m-b-86.aspx has the Sport for under £50, reduced from £70

Racevisors do not stock BMW - these have been my source of Shoei replacements

Is the BMW helmet you have based on a Schuberth or Caberg model, sharing a visor design? These are a lot cheaper.

It is a System 6 Evo. I don't know who is the actual manufacturer at this stage.
Has anybody used any of the available screen polishes with any success?
