Chemical etching on interior plastic. How to remove?

how many times did you use the plast x?

you can go to something more aggressive like ultimate compound but I'd just try the plast x a couple more times

I probably spent 20+ mins to get it too that stage. Its a vast improvement from where it was and will spend further time with the PlastX

I'd treat it as I would paint, using something a little more aggressive and then finishing it down with the Plast-X as a finishing step. How did this turn out for you?

I have certainly seen some drastic improvements. Want to give it a bit more effort but have been lending my car to my mum during the day so not had the chance. Found some old Kitten cut and polish in the back of the cupboard that feels more aggressive. Should have the car back in a few days to give it another go.

If I get 90-95% of it I'll be happy. A dressing over the top like Hyper Dressing may visually assist if I can get it near perfect.

Will report back in the next couple of days. Thanks for all the suggestions

I bet if you mixed in some T3 between the CM and LPL you mighta had better luck

I have had good luck with M105/M205 and "jewel" it with PlastX afterward. That plastic "looks" like it's a hard plastic, but kinda soft to work with, kinda rubbery I guess I'm trying to say......

It's looking much better and keep at it. I have just used my finger to work the product in and wipe before drying (CD's/DVD's etc).

You could try some Pledge Furniture Polish for kicks, I've used that too.

I honestly searched autogeek before asking, no wonder I had no idea what it was. Damn I hate acronyms at times. Probably not the best product to abbreviate but if I did it would be T3000. I don't believe in abbreviating numbers but 3k is the proper abbreviation for 3000.

Thanks for the suggestion though. Something else to consider. Wish I did have a terminator as he could easily buff it out
