Does it work on metal or plastic, as on a laptop's lid ? (not the screen)

Not sure, I only tried it on my phone screen. But, as it's intended to be used on screens and wasn't effective for that at all, I doubt it'll work on other surfaces.

Not sure but would think plastic would more likely do that. I love my metal one!

Yes. It is the the kind that sticks to the screen though, not the hard plastic

It works on conductive metal surfaces, not non-conductive metal. In addition, when I used it on stainless steel, the coating on -appeared- to be complete. Under magnification the coating was spotty with much of the original metal surface still showing.

Do not know, have never tried on this material . It works wonders on plastic screens, such as auto navigation screens.

I don't see how. I had to partially take it off to reposition something, and it's completely plastic. The unibody Mac is metal. Of course, if you drop the Macbook in the process... ;-)

I haven't taken mine off yet, but some of it I've peeled up. The material it's made of, I don't think it would. I haven't seen it to leave any stickiness or marks on my laptop. But like I said, I haven't taken it off yet.

not in any way I have seen, I have used it on hard plastic & it cleans great.

The top feels like some kind of thin metal yes, but the underside of the laptop is definitely a hard plastic. It is solidly built though.

I would not use it on anything where it can touch plastic. It may not affect it immediately, but this product, while excellent for cleaning actually metal electrical contacts is not the best for any contact with plastics. .. . . unless it is immediately flushed off with something like isopropyl alcohol. Even then. . . it might not be a good idea. Instead, try using something like Simple Green on a Q-tip and then follow that up with rinse.

I tried it on regular typing paper and it worked fine! My guess is that using it a lot on paper might dull it to plastic. My son has been cutting his picks from used gift cards!

It works in most non-shiny, solid surfaces (it does not work with glass tops). But works OK with almost anything else.

It's plastic, so it doesn't disapate heat in the same way metal would. The middle of the plastic top surface is concave. Most laptop fans are in an area where it would blow hot air out and into this channel. In that way it disapates heat. It also depends a bit on how tall the rubber feet pads are on your laptop. The higher the more clearance there is for air flow. I am using a MacBook. Most of the heat is disapated at the bottom of the screen area. However it works well enough to keep it cool. Most lap desks have similar issues with my Mactop. This is the best plastic surface lap desk I have found. My lap stays cool enough. After long use, my lap feels warmer, but there is padding on the bottom, so I would expect my lap to be a bit warmer just because of the insulating vale alone.

It only works for plastic ones. There's a different one for glass. I made the mistake of getting one for glass 1st time around.

Not sure, have not tried it on plastic, all I know is that it did not work very well on removing or hiding scratches on my car.

I have used this on both plastic and glass lights. Ive also tested it on chrome both metal and plastic dipped. Tested it on an old door window from a car and it worked well. When using it on chrome or glass be sure to put very lite coats and i recommend a clear coat for long lasting shine. Duplicolor clear works very good. Hope this helped
