Is this safe to use on the interior plastic/plexi glass covers like the gauge/speedometer covers, etc.?

Don't think it would hurt it, but, I couldn't recommend doing so. Better off using meguiars interior detail spray on those materials instead. Just the plain spray though. Avoid products containing oils and or silicon.

I would only use it for nothing but the windows/glass itself. Must be very careful with see through plastic. I only use a lint free very soft cloth to wipe speedometer gauges. If there's any residue that needs to be cleaned from it I would just dampen the lint free soft cloth.

I think you may want to call Graco on that question. Plasti-Dip is a pretty thick covering.

That is probably the worst thing you can do. The car's interior plastics are made with formaldehyde and if the car is off and it's a hot day you will probably be exposed to the toxins even more so, especially if you have the windows closed.

I used it only on me vehicle's doors (not fiberglass) and it did not damage them. I used a heat gun but only to warm (not hot) the adhesive and then scraped off with plastic razor blades. I also used some concentrated citrus cleaner which also helped to soften and clean off the residue.

Worked very well on glass, rims, paint, exterior plastic for me! I still prefer to use rain x on glass though. Haven't tried on chrome.

If the white gasket will fit on top of the cover and you still have enough threads to get a good grip on the bottom of the gauge, I would use it. Unless, the top of your lid is threaded and then you can just thread it in, in this case you might be able to use a little bit of Teflon tape to lubricate the threads.

Yes, that is what I own and we have had no problem with this item, be forewarned the heat shield was a little off. I would not recommend cutting it because that is what protects your plastic/rubber components in that area,we used a rubber hammer to bend in into the correct shape and my car has no problems! Idles better and passed emissions. I feel this was a great find for me and definitely recommend it.

I haven't used it on the interior door seals during the winter...I will tell you a little trick that does work pretty good though - plain old petroleum jelly. Unless it gets super cold, petro jelly works pretty good to keep interior seals from sticking in winter. I use the Gummi Pflege on my exterior window seals and it works great if you work it in. Other protective sprays didn't provide me with an even coat on my car. A lot of the newer cars have went to more of a rubber/silicone compound that is supposed to last longer and not dry out as much - I prefer good ole' fashioned rubber seals. The new stuff seems to be affected more by pollutants in wash water and rain water.

As long as the cover is made for external use and comes with all the gaskets and you use External Silicone to seal the outer edges of the external plate you should be ok. There are several types of plates that are designed for external use.

No. I actually used it on plastic and it made it a bit worse and don't use Meguiar's plastx it can ruin plastic too. If they are light scratches the best thing I found, especially for dark plastics, is Meguiar's Deep Crystal Carnuba Wax. It does not get rid of the scratches but it does help make them a bit less noticeable.

I've never had any problem with it when it comes in contact with moldings via overspray. When I get done washing my car I use this product on the painted surfaces. Then I dress my tires with a gel. I use Armor-All tire gel. I then use the gel on all of my plastic moldings(side-view mirrors, under-paint trim areas, window moldings etc.) and it works and looks great. Keeps the plastic looking new. Just use a good, strong cloth to apply it with. I'm sure any gel would do. Gels work better than sprays for plastic surfaces in my opinion.

Absolutely! Anything plastic. Try the number 3 first if the scratches are deep. I have used two bottles of each on various projects including motorcycle clusters, headlights, etc. and I love it.

I think you would be better off using an epoxy adhesive. This automotive GOOP is like rubber cement, and will bond materials together, but it isn't a very strong bond. An epoxy will do a much better job of permanently bonding the plastic.

I've used 3M General Purpose Adhesive Cleaner cleaner on both plastic and acrylic. The label says it is okay to use on cured paint, vinyl or glass. I don't see any warnings about plastic or acrylic. The primary ingredients are Xylene, Ethylbenzene and Toluene and Benzene. I suspect you won't want it to sit on plastics and acrylics for a prolonged period of time. All the ingredients are pretty nasty stuff so wear gloves and protect your eyes from spray-back and use it in a very well ventilated space. I love this for removing tar, oil, etc. on vehicle paint, wheels, etc.

Pretty sure you can. We used this on the plexiglass on our race car and it's held up so far. 2yrs and counting.

I would use 303 Vinyl Protectant, it works great for vinyl seats and fiberglass. READ the INSTRUCTIONS on both.

It will on some but you have to be careful because there are two types of plastic. The 1st type is the color is molded in the color right into the plastic and that's no problem. The second is the plastic is dyed the interior color and that you have to be careful cause the Novus will take the dye right off. So try it on a piece that is out of the way so if the dye comessage off it's in a spot you won't see. And the stuff works great on clear plastic like the dasH cluster. Good luck! Big Steve
