smokin george 2,647 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Malco fine polish with a good orbital polisher than ceramic coat. It'll do the trick on headlight lenses that have faded as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites

teamgreen02 1,259 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 I use a Turtle Wax spray on wax. They have a couple different kinds I have used over the years. The plastics one works good but stays a bit greasy, like Armor All kind of. Pledge or Plexus would work fine too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jethro 21 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I fell prey to the Ski Doo XPS spray polish on the parts counter last time I was in the dealership. It actually works very well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Make sure you don't screw up your un painted panels I guess it will keep it lookin good when you have to sell it in a year. Edited February 17 by Cwhite138 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Your thinking carnauba wax which will leave white residue on black texture plastic. The things we are talking here like plexus and capt richards stuff I suggested doesn’t leave white residue on black plastic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Literally watched some one wax a car at work for the fist time on Friday lol partially the reason I even said something in this thread. buddy actually buffed it also.. it made a massive difference, took for ever.

Yup, a full detail clay bar, Buffing/polishing and carnauba wax does take forever but it will look amazing. I do my wife’s car once a year and it takes a good 4-5hrs. A simple spray cleaner/polish is a few minute deal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cars would take a good 3-4 hours good detail & wax, trucks are a good 5 hour job. I'm done with all that shit now, it rusts out anyways. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
