How to Restore Interior Plastics

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Door trim panel

Video tutorial

If the interior trim plastics appear dull or have scratches, you can make them shine again with a simple trick: just heat them with a heat gun, being careful not to get too close to the nozzle to avoid burning or warping them. If there are scratches, it is advisable to sand with fine-grit sandpaper (2000) before using the heat gun; the warm air will make the plastic almost sweat, restoring a bright and uniform colour.

It is recommended to treat all accessible plastics to make them as uniform as possible.
