Help HTC Desire Z camera scratches.. HELP

[Auburn Mist]

I cannot find any posts yet that address camera lens scratches on the HTC Desire Z model. Unlike the HTC Desire, the "Z" lens cover cannot be popped out and replaced. So what can I do about my terribly scratched lens/lens cover??
I think I can buy a replacement camera but it's 60 dollars US!

The best thing I can suggest is trying to polish the worst of them out with jeweler's rouge applied with a piece of clean microfibre cloth wrapped round a match or Q-Tip stem.
