Plastic Lense Polishing - AMAZING RESULTS

Post by Anonymous »

Well, following on from one of Gavins threads which I inadvertently sort of hijacked, I have taken Dave robsons advice and started to polish my charger rear light cluster lenses with Brasso. He asked me to report back, so I am.

The results are absolutely fantastic. I am very, very impressed.

So, if you want to bring the lustre back to those dull old lenses, its liquid brasso, a soft damp cloth, and gently, away you go.


Cheers Dave, top advice as ever :thumbright: :thumbright:

Nice one, always good to get some real world feedback :thumbright:

I think it was probably Daves Brasso tip some time back that led me to use the metal polish I already had on plastic and that did the trick on my lights too!
