Default Top Shape Stuff

So, 2005 Boxster S in remarkable condition (47kmi.) but with slightly clouded lenses. Most of the stuff I’ve seen and used doesn’t work. But I saw someone on Rennlist speak highly of this stuff. So here are some pics, before and after on the left and after on the right. I’d say 90% of the stuff came off. Pictured also is Colourlock which I use on the leather bolsters of my 19 911 C2S. I’d say these two products can really make a difference.

Meguiars has been making a terrific plastic polish and cleaner for years. Haven’t found anything that works better.

You may want to put a sealer on those lenses now that they are clear. From the factory they have a UV resistant coating, which polishing removes. I used Jet Seal from Chemical Guys.

I agree. I was going to wash them but a sealer sounds better.
