Novus 1, 2, 3 Kit Plastic Polish and Scratch Remover Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have a 2002 Nissan Altima and the headlights were starting to look foggy, so I did a quick google search and it led me to this product. Not much info was given about it, so I opted for the one with the 'cloth' and the bigger 8 oz. bottles. This product worked perfect, I just paid for more than I needed. Let me explain...
First off the 'cloth' is a glorified paper towel. DO NOT let that be a factor in your decision! I thought it would be a nice polishing cloth, sandpaper, or something worth while, but no... It's just a paper towel. If you find a cheaper option without it, go for it!
Second, the #3 bottle was useless. It is meant to take out 'bigger' scratches, but it didn't work for me. I used the three step process "as is" and saw no difference at all. What made the difference was sanding. I would not purchase the #3 bottle again.
I read that a good technique for sanding is to use 800, 1000, then 1500 grain sandpaper to prepare my headlights for this product. I also read it takes over 2 hours! Another opinion was that all you need to do is use 2000 grain sandpaper and that would save you time. I went that route. I had a little trouble finding the sandpaper as my local hardware store didn't carry it, but wally world had it in the auto section for about $3.
If you have deep scratches or any imperfections you can feel by touch I recommend getting a lower grain sandpaper to buff that out, then wet sanding (sanding with water) with either the 1500 or 2000. This will save you some time, but you could just use the higher grain sandpaper, it will just take longer.
After sanding your headlights, or whatever plastic you are working on, should have an even haze throughout. If you can still see the imperfections in the haze, repeat the sanding process until they are gone.
This is where the Bottle #2 comes in and works great! This is intended for small scratches, and will fill all the ones you just created by sanding perfectly. Apply this with a paper towel like you are applying wax to a car, then let it sit for a few minutes. There were no instructions on what to do with all this gunk #2 leaves behind, so I used the #1 bottle to wash it off.
When I cleaned it off I was left with crystal clear plastic! It was AMAZING! I could still see a few imperfections, but they were only left behind because I didn't sand deep enough to get them out.
Good
+ #2 bottle works wonders!
Bad
- Paper towel advertised as a cloth
- #3 bottle useless (for me at least)
- #1 bottle could easily be replaced by windex or any other plastic friendly cleaner of your choice.
- 8 oz. was way too much for me
This product did exactly what I wanted it to do! My headlights look clear as crystal! I hope this review helps other people to pick what they need for their project.

NOV7100 8oz. Kit with #1, #2 and #3 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I used the 3 step process to try and remove some really deep scratches on my motorcycle windscreen. I wasn't expecting this product to remove them completely, and it didn't; but it eliminated the fine scratches and greatly improved the appearance of the really deep scratches. It can't perform miracles but it will work on scrapes and shallow scratches.

Forever Black Bumper & Trim Dye Kit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I took a chance on this product and wasted my money. From hindsight, I think that the very similar, glowing reviews on other sites were probably orchestrated.
My '04 Mustang GT convertible black plastic trim has faded over the years but Black Magic brings it back to a satiny sheen that lasts a couple of months before needing another application. I bought this product hoping for the "permanent" improvement promised. In fact, despite faithfully following the instructions, the first application looked like a drunk had put liquid shoe polish on my trim. Following the instructions, I later applied a second coat, and later yet a third but the appearance did not improve. My conclusion is that this item does not work on dense plastic trim.
Worse yet, this junk blocked the Black Magic from working, so the car looked much worse for having tried this product! So, I had to buy some solvent at the auto parts store to try and dissolve all the Forever to get rid of it. About 90% came off but it did stick in streaks where the wind had buffeted the plastic trim edges.
This product may work as advertised on rubber surfaces but it was a disaster on the plastic trim on my car. Caveat Emptor!

The permanent solution to sun-faded bumpers and trim moldings.Forever Black restores a dark, black, finish on sun-faded bumpers and body moldings. This is not a cosmetic dressing. It's an easy-to-use permanent dye. It permanently colors black plastic, rubber and vinyl with the same polymers that the manufacturers use. It is not a silicone dressing - silicone products will make plastic, vinyl and rubber appear to have regained their color but the change is temporary. Plus, silicone oils have been known to dry out the applied areas creating a bigger problem. Silicone also tends to leave a greasy residue even after buffing.How is Forever Black Different?1. Forever Black permanently dyes black plastic, rubber and vinyl.2. Forever Black will completely cover the worst wax build-up or sun-faded trim.3. Forever Black will not wash off.4. Forever Black dries in 5 to 20 minutes. No buffing is required.5. Once dried, Forever Black will not attract dust. There is no oily residue.6. Forever Black has a UV sun screen to help shield against future fading.7. Forever Black will restore bumpers, spoilers, mud guards, door handles, body and trim moldings to a like new condition.

Novus 8 oz Polish Kit, Plastic Cleaner, Polish & Scratch Remover Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My husband originally purchased Novus no. 1 a couple of years for automotive use, but he also tried it on his polycarbonate eyeglass lenses, and we have been very impressed with it as a lens cleaner. It buffs out fine scratches, so the lenses are easier to see out of, and it maintains them well. It even cleared up lenses with multiple scratches. We ran out of novus no. 1 and for a few months I had been using other things to clean my glasses. We recently ordered this kit with Novus no.1, Novus no. 2, and Novus no. 3. My husband first used number two and three on some scratches in a car door and he thought they really helped with it.

I used them on my eyeglasses.
I have a vintage pair of semi-translucent cat eye frames (complete with rhinestones) from the fifties that I purchased used about two years ago. After daily use, these frames had started to look pretty dull. I was especially disappointed with the bridge-- it had a sort of filmy appearance. After cleaning my frames and lenses, I tried a bit of No. 2 on a small spot and I thought it helped. I used it all over my frames, but I wanted some more improvement, so I tested and then used No. 3. Wow! After thoroughly and carefully applying no.3 all over and polishing my frames with it, they were really looking remarkably better. After using no.3, I carefully polished them with no.2 a few times. I then cleaned them with no.1.
I was amazed because these glasses now look better than they did when I first purchased them. The plastic has been restored and the filmy appearance is entirely gone. More impressively, after polishing and cleaning, I can now see details I never saw before, like the brand name on the inside of one arm, and the size of the frame. The area around the rhinestones is also remarkably cleaned and the lenses are very clear. I never expected this level of improvement without paying for professional cleaning.
As an aside, I'm also pleased by with bottle design. I dropped the Novus no.1 while I was using it and the spray top broke off. I'm clumsy and I've broken plenty of spray tops on things, and sometimes that means I can't use the product anymore. With these bottles that isn't a concern because I can just unscrew the top and transfer the contents to another sprayer and then recycle the bottle. I play on trying this system on other accessories and appliances.

NOV7055 2oz. Kit with #1 and #2 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It was as advertised. It worked as defined. I have found other uses on other platics. One trick to remember is to clear the flip out spout after you're finished with an application. This is easily done by reversing the suction by squeezing the lateral edges of the platic bottle to make it suck the residule goo back into the bottle. This will ensure that the spout will not be plugged by dried goo.

Novus 123 Plastic Polish Kit 8oz. With Extra Polish Mate Pack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I ordered this product based in some reviews and I have no words to express my total disapointment...The number three is nothing else than a cleaner, similar to any LCD cleaner, that does no more than water alone. Number three is very rough, and number two do not offer a fine polish, not better at least than any auto detailing product of the market. Mother's scratch remover or McGuire's scratch-x work far better for example...

First let me say that I'm very familiar with polishing techniques, as I'm an auto detailer, I got this one to polish the trim of an LCD TV, that the products I have refuse to finish properly, but the scratches lead to a haze blemish after using the number two, and what initially was a fine scratch now has become an hazed spot, impossible to remove. NOT EVEN AN ELECTRIC BUFFER FIXES IT NOW!!!
If you want to restore plastic any auto detailing product will work far better than this product, the polishing cloth are nothing more than a glorified paper towel pieces, that's it. I was expecting at least a microfiber towel, nope, a paper towel period...
Resuming, number three is too rough, number two does not polish what number three does, and number one is nothing else than a LCD water based cleaner...
Stay away from this rip off, you will be better served by any auto detailing product, that are cheaper and easier to find...

Novus Polish Kit, Plastic Polish & Scratch Remover, 2oz Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased a Novus Plastic Polish kit mainly to use for my many pairs of (non-prescription, non-coated) reading glasses, all with plastic lenses. The first thing I repaired, though, was my watch "crystal" (actually tough plastic), which had a big gouge in it. I started with product no. 1, which cleaned the plastic without affecting the scratch. Then I tried no. 2 but it made almost no difference. So following instructions I went on to no. 3, and after a few minutes of rubbing the scratch was almost invisible. Nobody would know it was there except me, and I'm certain I could remove every last trace if I thought it was worthwhile. I followed the no. 3 treatment with nos. 2 and 1 again, and the crystal was beautiful, like new except for the tiny area I didn't bother to spend more time with. I also tried the polishes on a couple of pairs of non-Rx reading glasses, with good results. It does what I wanted it to do, and is the first really effective, and fairly easy, way I've found to remove scratches and impart a super-slick shiny surface to damaged plastic.
The product labeled no. 1 is a super-good cleaner, and I suspect it is not abrasive at all. Each of the three products requires only a tiny bit to do its work, and there are a few lint-free wipers supplied to apply and buff with.
Highly recommended.

Meguiar's G-12924 NXT Generation Tech Protectant. 24 oz. trigger Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is really a standalone product as far as protectants go. It has a nice scent, lasts for a very long time, and doesn't leave a glossy/greasy finish.
The only negative is that it does tend to attract dust and lint, but due to the long-lasting nature of the stuff, you can just wipe the dash off with a dustcloth where most protectants would require a new application. So it's hard to tell if it is really this stuff collecting more dust or if it is just more obvious because the product is still there.
I think it's far superior to Armor all and formula offerings that are now commonly sold. It's too bad this stuff is hard to find at stores.

Does not drip or run when it rains/gets wet. I have had it on for about 5 months now in the direct sun and it still looks black. Easy to apply (must tape of the paint or chrome so as not to have it stain other parts of the vehicle).

Turtle Wax T-98R F21 Super Protectant With Sunstop, 32 Ounce Bottle Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Purchased this product to use on a 2000 Toyota Tacoma. Plastic trim and rubber suffering significant drying and fading after 9+ years in the south Florida sun. Applied the product by wiping on with a clean cloth, as stated before this will leave streaks and a "reside" of uneven shininess. However, if the product is sprayed or applied directly to the surface and massaged in until it becomes oily, it will leave a long lasting shine and deep, rich black on both even the most seriously damaged rubber and plastic parts. The key is rubbing it in until the water based carrier evaporates and the product feels like straight silicone oil, this change in the manner of application has convinced me that F-21 is the best protectant on the market. A microfiber towel is critical for buffing out the inevitible overspray from paint and glass and does an outstanding job.

Mothers 06108 Back-To-Black - 8 oz Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have read all the reviews for Mother's Back To Black, and frankly, I am a little surprised that no one has mentioned the "rain factor" with this product. I used to use this on my Volvo bumpers because over the years, they had faded from black to grey. The Back to Black did make the bumpers look nice; however, as soon as the next rainfall, the stuff would run off the bumpers and cause really ugly streaks. Likewise, every time I washed the car, applications of the Back to Black became an additional step during the washing process. Well, I got tired of that really fast.
For those who use this product and love having to continually apply and re-apply it over and over again, enjoy! However, for those who are looking for a permanent remedy to your faded trim, use Forever Black. It is also available here on Amazon. I applied 6 coats of the stuff back in September of last year (2007). As of right now, the bumpers on my car look BETTER than they did on the day I bought the car (3 years ago). The bumpers look fantastic and the Forever Black is not affected by rain, or any other weather conditions. Actually, I am quite shocked that Forever Black is not better known that it is.
