Duraglit polish wadding is a chemical treatment only. Not being abrasive it is unlikely to remove scratches from plastic. Brasso I would expect to be a bit course and leave a 'haze' although it might well work on a watch glass because of the glasses closeness to the face. It would be good to remove deaper scratches on an area later treated with a finer polish. Some people have had good results with toothpaste and the ultimate is considered to be Jewellers Rouge which I think is about the finest polish you can get.
The bottom line is, whatever the product, only superficial marks and scratches are likely to be successfully removed.

Another vote for the Novus products.
They are recommended by Stillpoints in the States and some bottles were supplied with my Stillpoints equipment rack for polishing the acrylic shelves.
For deep scratches, use the #3 Heavy Scratch Remover first and then apply the #2 polisher and finish with the #1 spray which is also a very effective polish and anti-static cleaner.

I had forgotten about this thread.
In the end I decided not to do anything, as I did not know what material the lid was made from. I could make it worse than it is.
