Cleaning up scratched plastic

[bobbarley]

I'm getting some R32 dials put into my mk4 in a couple of days.  However there are a few scratches on the plastic front which in certain light are quite noticeable.

Does anyone have any recommendations on how I can get the front of the cluster looking like new again?  Rhyso, you mentioned something to me, but I forgot the name  :embarassed:

Cheers

I'm sure you can get some type of T-Cut stuff but that's made especially for plastic.

I think I read somewhere talk of actually sanding it down???

not tried it myself so not sure how good it is

^^ Plast-x works well - if its so bad you think it needs sanding it'll be easier to buy another! the plastic on speedo's are made of some kind of see through soft cheese.......

any idea if this will sort the vynal on my corrado doorcards out? they look as if the colours fading out of them completely?

something i used to brighten up my rear lights was a little bit of G3 with some glass cleaner and megs wax, mix it up rub like hell, came up like new!
