Have an Acura MDX that had badly oxidized plastic headlights. Decided to mask them off and try using some of the Plastic Magic with my Flex Dual Action Polisher. Night and day difference. I did work it in for quite awhile til I was satisfied they were as good as they were going to get. I am very happy with the results. The vehicle as 90k miles on it and there are some chips and deep scratches that polishing didn't help but I'm amazed at how deeply it cleaned the plastic. There were stains and scratches I thought were inside the housings. I was wrong. Not bad for a non-abrasive cleaner.

I've had this bottle on my shelf for awhile and have had decent luck with it on various projects, applied by hand. Having the flex will make this stuff much more useful.

It is much better and this was done using a LC orange pad. If I fine polished it with a white pad it might even get better. I didn't even think of it at the time. Next time I'll give that a shot.
 
Thanks. Wish I could take all the credit but the z14 and the Flex 3401 made this a breeze. Hardest part was masking off the headlights sufficiently to give me plenty of room to work with the large pads. After that it was a breeze.
