Permanently Restore Faded Plastic and Make it look NEW AGAIN! E.3

Permanently Restore Faded Plastic Make it look NEW AGAIN! This is a permanent fix! Follow along as I show you how I took the original weather faded and oxidized plastic hood and cowl and made them look factory new again without paint, clear coat, heat or scraping with razor blades. This simple process involves wet sanding and machine buffing. For my application I started out with 150 grit then progressed to 220, 320, 400 then jumped to 1500, followed by machine polishing with polishing compound and then a final polish with mirror glaze then an automotive wax to protect everything for years to come. If I can do it with great results, so can you! This is the first time I have ever tried this with plastic and the results were no less than spectacular!

UPDATE - As of this date I have done nothing to the plastic and it still looks great as it does in this video, however, I cant say the same about the buffer. I've used the electronic buffer on a few vehicles and it's starting to act up and cut out. If you decide to buy this buffer, get the extended warranty, or better yet, If you plan to do more than a few projects with it, save your money and get the Makita.

[@foxcrosss6669]

This trics its good for atv?

[@BrandonLund]

@@foxcrosss6669 I've never tried it on ATV plastic but this plastic feels different than ATV plastic. It's more rigid.

[@erolfox]

Make sure you've got some kind of UV coating on the plastic Brandon. It's the UV rays that oxidize the plastic when it's in the sun. Check out vids on repairing car headlights.

[@BrandonLund]

Erol Fox thanks man! I appreciate the tip! :)

[@bransonred1]

You probably have a brush sticking on the "electric" buffer. Most HF stuff with electric motors come with a spare set of brushes, if so replace them - it's easy. If not, pull on the braided wire connected to the brush and make sure the brush travels freely in the holder...by doing this you can also verify that the spring tension that holds the brushes to the commutator on the armature is adequate. If brushes check out good, check the wiring connections.

[@philspaces7213]

So all morning I have been watching videos of prople “restoring” plastic with paint thinner and linseed oil. Thank you for showing how to do this properly and EXPLAINING at the same time

[@BrandonLund]

Thanks Phil! 🙏😁

[@tadhghannon5070]

I think its paint thinner and boiled linseed oil. LoL

[@victorrojas2842]

@@tadhghannon5070 yup and then hit it with the buff or 1500 wet sand & then buff. Cuz I think it's faster than wet sanding

[@JALA578]

The boiled Linseed oil and paint thinner works, but without sanding and it's not going to look refined.

[@mikebabic1334]

A suggestion: when working with plastic start with a fine grit and work your way backwards. Starting with 150 grit on a soft surface (for the inexperienced person) will create more work and damage. Start with 1000 grit and get a feel for what's happening. Not coarse enough? Go down to an 800 grit and see where that leaves you. My guess? You'll be in the 400 to 700 grit range and you won't need to burn-out a buffer, taking out scratches. Best solution for moderate oxidation is to avoid sanding altogether and use a product called Malco Rejuvinator. This liquid polish and wax combo can tear through oxidation and save tons of time. Finish with a super fine 'enhancing' polish and the job's done. It also reduces the overall cost considerably as it's more than effective without a buffer even on larger jobs (cars, trucks, boats) Save the paper and cash for really heavy jobs. Like I say, just a suggestion.

[@BrandonLund]

@Mike Babic excellent advise! Thank you for sharing. I have not heard about that product but I will sure look into it! Thank you!

[@Day12My]

The Malco Rejuvinator says it is for automobile paint. It works on plastics too? Just want to make sure before I drop $25 on it

Hi. Great post, thanks for the video. I stumbled across this whilst researching ways to restore plastic outdoor furniture. It's given me some great ideas as to how to tackle my project when my tired old chairs come out of the shed in the spring.

[@BrandonLund]

@Claire-Louise Manning great idea! This is the first I heard of someone restoring their outdoor furniture but why not! 👍💪🙏

[@jaquesdaniels2964]

Superb result, I have often looked at those buffers in my local toy-I mean tool shop- years back, I used to valet cars, and we used brass cleaner-its the same as cutting compound really but usually cheaper, it might be worth trying that on a spot test first to see if it will cut through the haze without the sanding, but to be honest theres usually no substitute for the progressive sanding as you did there, very satisfying result.

[@BrandonLund]

Jaques Daniels that's interesting Jaques, thanks for tip! I will have to give that a try. The compounds can be a little pricey. This is probably one of the more satisfying projects I have ever done..I was learning as I went and im amazed that it looks brand new! That buffer works like a champ!

great video... i have been doing this many years... if you started with 150 i would have then went 250,400 ,800 then maybe 1000 ,1500.2000...after you are at 800 you can hit the last 3 grits pretty fast before buffing... of coarse i am talking about doing a perfect restoration... you could also get decent results doing 250,600 ,1000,1500 then buff...or even just hit with 250, 600, 1000 and buff ..

That's how its done! I like 2000 grit, while some headlight restoraters go up to 3500 grit. only thing out there is long lasting ceramic rub down, or a clear vinyl to take the sun abuse...remove vinyl & its like new. They have some permanent bond 1 year waxes.

I only used 150 grit and I wondered what to shine it up with. I used Armour all but it wasn't satisfactory. Now you've given me the right tools for the next plastic item that works well but looks bad. I rely on selling donated items to fund my stray and ferel cat rescue. (I sometimes have to recondition, not just clean) Thanks for sharing your expertise!! 2 Questions: Would you use this technique on an old Bake o lite radio body? and how can you tell when plastic is pigmented all the way through on items for which you can't peek inside? Thanks!

[@BrandonLund]

Thanks for the great comment! I’m not an expert in this matter but if you can shave a small piece from an unseen area it will help you determine if its a solid color.

[@theriderdtm8650]

[@BrandonLund]

[@boltonky]

Good video actually did same thing to my yardman but def takes some time, my new way is to sandblast (with fine glass) then use a blade to remove oxidized layer bit of heat then either clear coat or buff/polish then clear (which fills in remaining scratches) .... every technique has its place and some plastics it works others don't...white plastics you can use hydrogen peroxide or even better hair volumiser (great for switches but you need right one) turns from yellow to white. Keep safe, keep trying

Rubbing compounds are used after wet sanding and you start with the coarse compounds and finish with fine. As far as the manufacturers, its been too long to remember without actually watching the video or checking the links. I do use turtle wax products so I probably did here also.

If you wet sand with 400g then use heat gun to bring out the oils, then continue the sanding and buffing it will go much quicker.

[@BrandonLund]

Good to know! Thank you

[@justinherrera7472]

I have a question. Is the sand paper you are using a special grit made specically for plastics?. I work in collision and 120 grit would completley ruin the plastic. I would have started with 1000 grit wetsand paper then work my way to 1500 to 2000 and then 3000. Educate me on this.

[@BrandonLund]

Justin, to be honest I just used the limited knowledge I have with wood working and applied it here. These papers are just generic paper you could buy at any hardware or auto parts store. My thought process was I needed something aggressive to cut through the chalky uv faded layer getting it back to virgin plastic then I just progressively used finer paper to rub out the scratches from the previous sanding until it was smooth and shiny.

[@mrnighthawk285]

Nice work is there a way you could send me close up shot of light of it reflecting the lights to see scratches I restore plastics like this but always use 600 grit and 1000 before 1500 . Just wondering if you skip those two would the scratches still be gone, I know it will shine but unsure about scratches

[@BrandonLund]

Thanks! Right now it's in winter storage covered over so I dont have access to take pics. I know what your saying about leaving fine scratches behind though and there were none. I cant say how it would work on a harder or softer plastic but for this particular one it's almost perfect.

I didn't use anything fancy actually. After I hand sanded I started with a mcguires coarse compound that I picked up at Wal-Mart. That got it close so then I switched to a bottle of 3M micro glaze that I had laying around and that got the finish you see in the video.
