See? Now THAT is why I love the site! ...helping others out. I was wondering if I was really going to get that plastic to look completely clear again and I knew I could (since the headlight type cleaning stuff), but I just didn't know how. THANK YOU. I'll go pick some up today.
Also, does anyone know (or has anyone tried) actually removing the paint WITHOUT sanding? I've tried paint thinner and the paint won't come off. The excess paint I painted on (to test color matching) came right off, but the original paint won't come off. If I can't find a good paint remover, I'm just going to sand, sand, sand and then use the eastwood plastic compound. Rick, I know you said you did. But, did it work? Did you use a water based remover? Oil based? What type and did it work?
