A killer plastic polish I've been using for years...

I have no idea where I got this; 210 Plastic Cleaner and Polish, from Sumner Industries. I originally got it to clean the plastic that goes over the gauges on my Nissan truck in 1986. It's an aerosol spray that feels very, very slightly "heavy". I think I may have gotten it at an art supply store.

I use this stuff on almost anything plastic, and it produces a very glassy surface. On plastic convertible windows it will clean up mild everyday marring to excellent clarity.

For all the other stuff I've bought since going Autopian, 210 is still the product I reach for first when cleaning and polishing plastic.

Mosca....when I bought my latest bottle of 303 at Boater's World (the only local place to get 303)....they had the 210 as well. I bought the Plexus as I had never head of 210. Good to know about 210 being a good thing.

Hmm...wonder how it compares to Novus #1, that did a wonderful job on a wood style plastic center console

Yeah, Matt, I just read yer review of Plexus!

I'd like to try it, but my can of 210 is still 2/3 full (after almost 20 years, mostly as a non-Autopian). When it's done, I still have the Novus 1-2-3 stuff. What I find is, I use Novus 1 & 2, but for the final buff I use the 210.

Edit: is it the other way around, with Novus #1 being the final step? Whuchever, I prefer the 210.

Found mention of 210 over at s2ki.com... thought I'd link to that review as it's used on headlights and it's something I'd like to try on my plastic rear window, as well... Meguiar's #10 and #17 combo aren't cutting it on either surface...

Apparently there's the spray (as mentioned by Mosca) and there's an actual polish ("Plastic Scratch Remover")...
