Menzerna on headlights
Is there anything preventing me from using my MEN power finish and super finish and 7424xp on the headlights and taillights? People tape them up when polishing their paint so I thought maybe polishs on plastic is a no but others use it to clear headlight swirls and oxidation.
Advice?

1. don't get the pad caught on the edge and start cutting it up
2. Burn/damage the plastic headlights
3. Stain the headlight
You can use it, but the thing is you won't have any protection on it. Use some sort of plastic protecant like Plasti-x from meg's, otherwise it'll turn yellow fast. As well plastic heats up quick! Don't polish for too long, if its warm to the touch its too hot.
