TrisK Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 i was thinking that, maybe you would be best to wet and dry it off, then polish it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ilghap Posted September 23, 2011 Author Share Posted September 23, 2011 I thought about thinners but thought it might be abit strong on the plastic.I will try T-cut if not then wet and sand with 2000 grit. I just thought as I have a spare set, I will try to put them into use. saving me buy another setnever thought about nail varnish remover......interesting Quote Link to post Share on other sites
andi Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 the bloke at the motor shop said nail varnish remover is the same as the auto tech tint spray remover. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
