jevansio Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Just thought I'd share my thoughts on this to anyone planning to do it. To summarise IMHO I think that if you do the outsides and you are happy with the results, then the time & effort getting the lights out, apart then back together again is not worth it (unless your insides are really bad). This is a pic of mine after doing 1 fully, & the other the outside only, & I can't tell the difference. If I'd known before I started how little difference it'd make to do the outside only I wouldn't have bothered doing the insides. Hope this saves somebody some time & effort, Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Getrag Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Good work but I cant tell the difference with the the sun reflection on the OS one. When I put my plastic ones in the oven and cleaned inside AND out I noticed a bigger difference than just outside. It will depend from light to light and how old they are etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jevansio Posted October 20, 2006 Author Share Posted October 20, 2006 Looks a fecking nice car. I want leather seats waaaaaaa Nice Car Mate Thank you peeps, what products did you use? I used Novus 3 stage plastic polish (1 is a cleaner, 2 is a heavy scratch remover, 3 is a fine scratch remover), I got mine from: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Novus-plastic-polish-1-2-3-Pinballs-IPOD-MOBILEs_W0QQitemZ220038015525QQihZ012QQcategoryZ3947QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem I also used a PoterCable dual action orbital polisher to make light work of the polishing, you can order them directly from the US, I bought mine from a guy on ebay, but all he does is get them sent from the US straight to your door.
