Sounds like you put it on too thick. Once cured it's like concrete. The best thing I've found on smooth plastics is using Magic Eraser and some apc,

Why do you need to remove it?

It was my first time to ever use CQuartz Dlux. I applied Dlux to the black plastic on the door mirrors. One mirror is noticeable darker black than the other mirror. Not sure if I used too much on one and not enough on the other.

For smooth plastic/trim you can polish it off with Reflect. If it is textured trim, you can use a pressure washer and patients to fully remove it, possibly even Reflect (depending on the plastic).

I've used a mild polish, like Meguiar's
M205, on a polishing pad.

The original color of the mirror is suppose to be a matte black with a low-sheen.

Will the Reflect restore the mirrors to the original faded black before I applied the dlux or will make it glossy?

From what I understand dlux is suppose to be applied as a thin coat. Won't applying dlux to thick or applying additional coats cause some kind of negative change on the plastic later or no?

I seem to recall a post where someone said Dlux damages your trim over time.
