After 600-2,500 grit wet sanding:


With PlastX and my drill attachment:


It is better, but still not good enough.

Project Farm said that the Sylvania kit was the only one that restored the plastic to like-new condition, based on what he saw with a microscope.

It comes with 1 ounce of clear coat, 1 ounce of Surface Activator, .5 ounces of clarifying compound, 400, 1,000, and 2,000-grit wet\dry sandpapers, applicator and polish cloths, and a food-service glove.

What is in the surface activator and clarifying compound?

The other thing is that, like in videos for other techniques, it was cloudy until they clear-coated. I would just do that, but it is still yellow!
