Polishing Tail lights
What are the steps, tips, tools, etc etc. that are involved with polishing the tail lights?
Im interested in doing this after looking at the "rear end" pic thread.

If you have a buffing wheel, just buy some fine rubbing compund and go to town. Just make sure you dont get the plastic to hot or you will melt it. I have a multi speed buffer, so I turn it on low and go at it.
