Review on πŸ”§ Novus PC-20 2 Fine Scratch Remover for Plastic - 8 Oz by Wayne Drakh

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A good polish, not just a filler

Great polish for minor scratches. I've used it on headlight covers (usually polycarbonate), ABS, clear PVC and it's worked well on all of them. The depth of your scratches will determine the quality of polish you use. I start with a finer polish and if that doesn't work I use paint for a finer finish. Novus is number 3 (golf polish). You should always use a finer polish after a finer polish, so you'll have to use polish 2 again, but that way it's easier to tell which one works. I would hesitate to use this on a touchscreen as it could be invisible circuitry (indium tin oxide) very close to the surface and this material. If you don't know or understand the technology, it's usually best not to mess with it. Heating TNT on a stove would be bad if you didn't know what you were doing. It's TNT. It appears to leave some coverage on the surface, but this is NOT like many "fill-type" transparency-enhancing products which are short-lived. If it doesn't need rubbing (or shaking the bottle) then it's not varnish. And while it can last a little longer than a chemical hot melt wipe, you have a lot more control and less risk of ruining the finish. In the worst case (if you don't overdo it and melt the plastic) you end up with a significant indentation in the material. I'd like it to last a little longer before drying, but anything probably dries faster in the hot Texas sun. After checking with the manufacturer, they say that water can be used to wet the surface if you don't dilute the polish. oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Although they might work better as they don't expose the polish to air as often and therefore can last longer than liquid. I'm polishing the inside of the cylinders so I need something round instead of a disc. Just for headlights I would try these. Underlay+for+drills
