Lonewolfgjp Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 Depends which lights? Rear lights try a bit of fine cutting compound, Meguries ultimate is ideal. If that isn't doing the job try a medium cutting compound. Always seal it up with some wax or sealant. Try the same on the fronts ideally with a da or rotary polisher, but you can do it buy hand. If the fronts are green or looking cloudy try the Autoglym headlight restoration kit, easy to use and very effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddy555 Posted July 6, 2018 Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 For any faded black plastic I'm a huge fan of GTechniq C4. It's a tiny bottle but you need very little to cover the area and it's lasted well over a year on the couple of cars I've used it on. It sorted the Boxster's grey plastic under the windscreen and around the mirrors superbly. http://amzn.eu/0O0tsAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terryg Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 Used Polytrol 2 years ago on my scuttle, still looks great now, it goes a very long way so your small bottles should be fine. I think it is a marine product so designed for much tougher environments than we use it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patt Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 Polytrol. For the scuttle I used a small art brush to put it on and work between the dimples in the scuttle. A very small bit will do the whole car ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graham1259 Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 Agree with the comment about GTechniq C4. It transformed all wiper arms, scuttle and plastic around the mirrors and you need so little it will go a long way (prob last a few years/few cars.) Got mine on ebay and it is transformational!

Guvs Posted July 19, 2018 Report Share Posted July 19, 2018 I had a small bottle of polytrol but I couldn't find it when I went to do my scuttle last week, but remembered reading somewhere on a forum that WD40 works well, and it does so yet another thing it's good for and a lot cheaper than the likes of Polytrol/GTechniq C4.
