Hi there,

Anyone have sugestions for how to restore interior plastics?
My Hachi is a Zenki one with brown/dark red interiors but they need repair because the sun whitened their surfaces.

Who have ever restored his interiors? What should i do? Products to buy?

Thks

Paint them with special paint (or additive) for plastics.

You cant "restore" the plastics. The way the surface looks after many years, is caused by the lack of UV resistant material in the plastic.
In other words; The wrong kind of plastic was used to make the parts, whos exposed to the sunlight.

You need to cover the parts, either with vinyl or sand them down and paint them.

You can - if they are not painted. You can rub them with some abrasive compound.
