Removing Plastic window scratches - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

Well I use Plexus to keep the back plastic window crystal clear but it won't remove the hairline scratches and bend marks. For that I'll be giving this
Renovo Plastic Polish a shot. It was recommended by one site over their Meguiar's product (even though he didn't carry the Renovo product). Must be good.
I plan to apply it to my de-Ambered headlights before I add the stongard vinly headlight protectors. These plastic headlights and windows are not cheap to repair..
By the way if you have tinted windows Plexus is also the recomended product.

Believe it or not, a good item to use to buff plastic headlights is..... :dance:
REGULAR CREST TOOTHPASTE

The floride in it is one of the best things u can use (reason they use it for teeth). I've used it on headlights and motorcycle wind sheilds. works wonders.

Do not use any other kind, especially "whitening" it will scratch the hell up plastic.

Regular Crest Toothpaste has the most purest consentration of floride compaired to the rest. "Whitening" has crystals that can and will scratch plastic. Other brands have a different gel like substance that can cause cloudiness.
Its basic chemistry guys :dance:
What do you think the dentist uses to smooth out and clean your teeth with?
