Angry Nu finish on scratched plastic

i used the polish/wax "NuFinish" on my plastics wich have quite a bit of fine scratches. so when i washed it the polish stayed in EVERY scratch!!! i have tried using a degreaser with no luck, i have pressure washed it several times, tried to buff it out...any ideas on what i could do? or any chemicals i could try out?
thankyou

Try using some stuff called Wet n Black. It works great to shine up the plastic, and should soak into the wax....eventually the wax will come off, but until then the Wet n Black will hide the wax. You can get it almost anywhere. P.S. spray it heavily onto a towel or wash cloth then wipe it on the plastics. This stuff looks great but attracts dust so all you want is a thin film. Good Luck!!

Try a little dish soap. Most dish soap is actually harsh enough to strip wax off your cars finish. Thats why you should always use a automotive specific soap. I've also found that WD-40 works pretty well at removing wax and other contaminents.

What about Goo Gone. I have used it on plastics and it took off glue and didn't harm the plastic?
