polishing plastic????????
I have been going around and around with this. I have an '02 with all black plastics. Every scratch shows and any sort of polish just sticks into the scratches. I have tried everything... In fact I went so far as to go to a local plastic shop where I got some stuff called Novus... its supposed to be the best plastic polish on the market. Nothing has produced the results which I have wanted. I think I am expecting too much. I was really looking for a factory finish, and with the gouges I have, its just not going to happen. My best results came from 4 inch buffing wheels on a drill with plastic polishing compound. Then finishing with a polish made for plexiglass. It doesn't get it perfect but I have been able to knock down the deep gouges, and put a glassy shine on everything including the gouges. The funny thing is I could have just purchased new plastics for the amount I have spent on various polishes. Good luck.

polishing plastic????????
Well I have buffed on my gas tank plastic for an hour now and I think I am about out of patients. I think I will just buy a new one. The reason I want to get it looking like new is because I have a new nose for it and wanted to try and make them match. I agree that I won't get the results that I am looking for. I guess I am too picky. I also think that if I would of had this since new it would not be in the shape it is in. Boy the black plastic sure does show all. Thanks for all the advise. RUSS
