Default Tail Lens Clean up

Just thought I'd share this if anyone was interested. I removed and cleaned up my tail light lenses this weekend and was amazed at the results. I used a paste called Semichrome metal polish on the stainless rings, and toothpaste on the plastic. WOW :eek: The toothpaste removed all the surface scratches and cleared up the clowdy plastic. It works kind-a like polishing compound does on the paint. It takes a little elbow grease but the results were worth it.
It also makes your rear end minty fresh! :lol: :cheers: :seeya :seeya
