Review Meguiars Plastic X I like it a lot:)
Hey guys, I been cleaing up my car and got a bunch of stuff. Anway I picked up some of this today and cleaned my headlights and taillights. Very nice gets a lot of the oxidation off the plastic. Its about 6 bucks a bottle. Anybody else try any?
I think if you haven't it would be worth your time to try.

Bought it to polish headlights after I had sanded them down and it looked good... till you whiped it off. Terrible product for that. Havent used it on just cleanup yet, so cant put an opinion on that. Used Novus 3 Step on the headlights and its by far superior to any plastic polish Ive seen/used. Curious on how it does on other plastics.

I've applied this to my GF's Grand Cherokee, my taillights, my cluster bezel lens, and even badly-scratched CDs. The results fall far from satisfactory after the application dried (+3 days).
Wetsanding is a proven method, and I've heard good things about the Novus 3 step. I'd quickly do either before resorting to PX on plastics that need a true polish.

But let it dry, and watch the scratches come running right back.

I might have to go buy a bottle of this stuff. So it works good on the headlights and does it work well on the plastic under the front winshield? Mine is looking a little worn
