Polish on Plastics

[timmmah]

I've got some polish on some black plastics and there's white marks on them.

What's recommended to remove the white marks?

Thanks

little bit more polish, and lots of elbow grease

The actual polish is AutoGlym Super Resin Polish. It's like a white cream.

Will adding more of this really make the white mark go away????! :S

Einszett Plastic Cleaner or Meguiars APC

yes, its how i got it off mine. let the polish u have on there dry properly, i left it 24hours, and then jsut a very small amount and then rub it hard, and wipe clean

Wooo mixed answers :S lol

Autoglym Super Resin on textured Black trim is how I am reading this thread ? If so applying more SRP onto the trim where it has gone by mistake will just make it worse.

megs Apc. Usefull stuff. im presuming youve got srp on the trim.

You can mask it with autoglym bumpercare, thats cheaper.

That's what I thought.

The only thing i've found that actually removes the white marks is a pencil eraser . All the trim products you buy just mask the marks .

WD40 is my prefered product for dressing black trim

Doesn't WD40 leave a greasy film ?

Not really , use a cloth to dress it then buff it off .I've used greasier dedicated trim products . It blackens the trim and is water repellent . Use it after the pencil eraser

This is what i use, mainly for interior plastics and the usual scuff marks , but today used it on polish that has been on the black plastic scuttlepanel for over 2 weeks and just wet it removed it with ease I also used it on my alloys to remove brake dust that was baked on and some runs with acid wheel cleaner from the previous owner. You can buy it for about £1 in cheap shops and it just breaks down so you know when its fubared

Linsead oil.

Megs APC doesn't remove it even at 4:1

Depends on the product Ali as said before, works fine for me, wipe it on neat if need be.

That actually looks quite good, kind of works like clay I guess from the video?
