Effective Plastic Polish 1-2 Punch!

[SilverLexus]

Well good ole Bret my detailing guru swung around close to my car yesterday and scratched my right rear tailight with his super-tough Nextel phone and left a medium scratch. Lawsuits were filed.



Today I head down to the garage to try our two plastic polishes I have had good results with Zaino Z-14 and Meguiars PlastX. PlastX has a light micro-abrasive and Z-14 I think really minimizes the scratch but has no abrasive. Here are the results...



Process:

**Applied and buffed off each product with small DF Towel

**Applied Z-14 at first, got much of the scratch but not the deepest cut

**Applied PlastX, got the big scratch out, left a small amount of haze

**Applied Z-14 again for shine

**Good as new.

Much improved after Zaino Z-14

After PlastX and another round of Z-14...Where did it go?

The product lineup

Lawsuits are dropped in light of good results and free APC samples after "accident". :woohoo:

I'd still sue for damage like that. It's got to be good for some pain and suffering or something...

Good idea...Bret at least owes me a beer or steak at Longhorn.



I just realized the Z-14 does have fine abrasives. Man, I gotta read the label more carefully.

I'm going to try the front lights on the Camry next. The weather here in Atlanta is beautiful.

So the PlastX left haze......hmmmm.

Maybe haze is a bit strong, but it wasn't very clear until the Z-14 was applied. It seems like the the Z-14 acted as a polish and LSP on plastic.

Here's the effectiveness on severely hazed headlights...

Looks like another quality product from Zaino.
