Anyone know how to remove scratches from plastic fender flare?

[Darkcanuck]

I have a small scratch in the non-painted portion of my fender flare. Does anyone have any products or tips to remove or at least make it look better?

That's a textured surface so I think your results will be limited. That said, Plastic-X from Meguiars has always been a good way to help recover plastic surfaces.

Replace the plastic trim with a new if it really bugs you. Otherwise, count it as a war wound and embrace it.

Black crayon or black china marker.... Shoe polish also works

Get it painted. Always easier to fix a painted part in the future than textured plastic.

Bringing this back from the dead... I screwed up and put a huge gash in the top right of my front passenger fender. Anyone have any success getting something like this out?

Try magic eraser

My fenders take a beating. They look bad when fresh and then seems to subdue overtime… I just don’t worry about it.

You’ve gouged the plastic. There’s no fixing it. You can reduce its visual impact with a coating, as suggested. If it bothers you, the only option is to replace the part. Sorry.

not repairable - beauty marks - I drive on dirt roads you should see mine after 2 months

Try 303. Obviously it doesn't remove the scratches but it does seem to minimize their appearance.

Beyond repair. Just purchase another one and replace it.

Less than 200 bucks will buy you a new plastic Rubicon fender.
