i have a vintage lucite purse that has some oxidation. is there any way possible to make it clear again? this is my first time with this problem and don't have a clue.

if forgot to say, the foggy part is inside a compartment that holds flowers. cannot get to it.

I don't know if this will help but maybe....this is for a windshield but they say lucite

Step 2. With the windshield still wet, sparingly spray on some of Sumner Laboratories' product called 210®. Using clean tee-shirt material, gently wipe the windshield dry, again, using straight back-and-forth motions. Sumner's 210® is available through many motorcycle and plastic supply houses ( and Tulsa Enterprises carries it too!) It's specifically formulated for use on Lucite or Lexan. Besides being anti-static and anti-fog, it helps seal the pores of plastic and leaves a protective coating. From Tulsa Enterprises, a seven-ounce can of 210® costs $5.50 plus shipping. Sumner Laboratories' 210® Plus scratch remover (7.5 oz., $6.50) can improve lightly scratched surfaces. As with any product you've not tried before, do a test sample in a small (preferably out of the line of sight) area of the windshield to see if it makes things better or worse.

A fine polish like Simichrome will make lucite look like new, but only if you can get to the problem area.....

Life is not a dress rehearsal

thank you for your suggestions and i will try that on the outside but i need some miracle that will clear the inside compartment that is closed, unable to get to that with any polish.
