rear light lenses shine needed!!!!!!!!

[vonbeck]

How can i put the shine back into the rear light covers and number plate surround, mine are looking a bit dull

[Tony Stark]

Think i used some t-cut or similar polish on mine. Took a few goes and had to work it hard but it got rid of the scratches and dull look.

Guy i know used a machine mop on his daewoo matiz headlamps as the plastic lens was dull/cloudy and they came up a treat.

[Acidburn]

as above - t cut them.

For a quick fix wipe them over with AG bumper shine

[LunarWolf]

Don't forget to do the "inside" of the covers too. Maybe even use some REALLY fine wet/dry rubbing paper too.
A toothbrush is also quite handy, but discard it afterwards!!!!!

Brasso!

I machine polished the ones on my old S2

[fish]

A top tip is to first shove them in the dishwasher. That makes them REALLY clean inside and out, then let them dry properly and then machine polish them with T-cut for example and then a coat of glosswax.

some new bulbs?

wetsanding with machine 3000 grit (alot of water) and then polish with machine first with a heavy cut polish then with smooth polish and then som wax... you can get them like new...

Get them removed and have someone prep and lacquer them, will be like band new

Loads of different options there!

I have machine polished mine with Menzerna polishes and they look great. If doing by hand, get some Plastix by Meguiars from Halfords and apply with elbow grease....

[Wrath]

Menzerna is a good brand, always use that, and 3M Fast Cut plus (the scracth remover)

Agree done this quite alot, But T-cut will get them looking better and is cheaper than paying someone to prep and lacquer
