    you could also use a heat gun to vaporize the oxidation. if you have a heat gun, it's free and permanent

      It’s an option, although it won’t give you an even finish and can make the plastic more brittle.

  • @TheObsessedPatriot
    @TheObsessedPatriot 23 дні тому

    I see you choose "mid grey". How is it possible to correctly match the level of black? I think my Tundra plastic is more of a very dark grey. It may have supposed to have been black, but how would you know?

    • @BuildCreate
      @BuildCreate  23 дні тому

      There is a sample book that has all the shades to match.
      I’ve found that the best match do a dark grey is called ‘traffic black’ that’s a mix of both.

    It’s a shame they don’t do a clear coat as it would probably work on headlights after you have prepared them for sealing maybe. as it can give black plastic a permanent shine, why can’t it give clear plastic a permanent shine, maybe that’s just wishful thinking, as a lot of my old cars with plastic headlights need restoring because of fading. 🤷‍♂️
