Deep scratches in plastic
I was curious on what I could use to fill in deep scratches in plastic where I was using a low grit sandpaper to get some paint off. Im went pretty high in sandpaper and there little scratches you can see. Is there a filler or a bondo that will work on plastic? And what would you recommend. I don't need nothing commercial just something easy to put on there and sand down smooth.

are you plannin on painting these plastic pieces. the only thing i can think of is a 2 part plastic repair epoxy, dry's hard and is pretty hard to get off when its dry.

Yea, i want to paint them over. I had it painted real nice and damn clear screwed it over so I sanded it down and noticed i went to low of a grit causing deep scratches. Basically I want to put the epoxy over the plastic and sand it down to create a smooth finish for painting.

ya pretty much. the plastic repair epoxy is what i used on my front grills and they are still holding strong. had them on some high way runs and everything and not even a hint of letting go. and if you do it right it will look as if it wasn't even there.
