JackC 617 #2 Posted October 22, 2012 i have used paste wax to clear up a plastic rear window on a convertible. You could try it on a small spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AMC RULES 37,102 #4 Posted October 22, 2012 Before mounting, I'm thinking that thing is gonna need some red paint and vinyl dye in a bad way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welderman85 53 #5 Posted October 22, 2012 :wh: Before mounting, I'm thinking that thing is gonna need some red paint and vinyl dye in a bad way. you are correct sir theres no way i would mount that green stuff on a wheelhorse. for now the doors will be painted/dyed and the cab painted next year my neibor is going to reskin the doors and sew up all new vinyl for it hoepefuly when im done hopefully it will look factory/good 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dsholler 54 #7 Posted October 23, 2012 There are a bunch of marine products that are made specifically to do this. you could try something like this http://www.defender.com/product.jsp?path=-1|10918|309314|311452&id=197549, but of course, since it is made for boats it costs a fortune for what it is.

slufoot733 70 #8 Posted October 23, 2012 I recently heard that TOOTHPASTE will polish plastic headlight lenses......try it on a small spot on your wondow. If it doesn't work then you're not out anything. But if it does....cheap fix! Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roscoemi 245 #9 Posted October 23, 2012 I've used toothpaste in the past. Just got my cab on and will try on my windows this weekend, it hasn't been washed in it's life (1979). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MalMac 1,331 #10 Posted October 23, 2012 I use a product called Novus It is the best stuff I have used on cab windows. Another member on here HorseFixer turned me on to it. It is not cheap, I found mine on ebay. It does a great job on the cab windows. I have two cabs on of which is a 1978 vintage. It had real foggy scratched up windows. Using Novus and some elbow grease they came back to almost factory new. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used this on my plastic windows and it works very well. Great deal on the cab. I welded a flat bracket on the rear of my fender to mount a Cub Cadet cab on my 314-A. Everything else lined right up.
