Scratch Removers for Plastic

Remove scratches, haziness, and abrasions from plastic surfaces.

Fine scratch removers repair minor abrasions and haziness on all plastic surfaces. After restoring the surface, seal it with a coat of plastic polish.

Deep scratch removers repair heavy scratches and abrasions. The fine scratch remover is required for final finishing. Note: Not for use on coated plastics, polycarbonate, or eyeglass lenses.

Smoothing and Polishing Solvents for 3D-Printed Plastics

Remove ridges from 3D-printed plastic pieces and give them a polished finish. Dip your piece in solvents for less than a minute, or use them in vapor smoothing systems. Unlike alternatives such as isopropyl alcohol and acetone, these solvents are non-flammable. Compared to grinding, sanding, and buffing, these solvents produce a smoother part with less time and effort.

Smoothing and Protective Coatings for 3D-Printed Plastics

Unlike other processes that remove surface ridges on 3D-printed parts, these coatings hide them for a smooth, glossy, heat- and impact-resistant finish. Mix this two-part coating and apply it to your parts—a small amount will cover a lot. The coating spreads uniformly without leaving stroke marks, making parts smooth enough to use as a mold, or they can be sanded, primed, or painted for further finishing work.

To add color to your parts without the extra step of painting, stir a few drops of UV-resistant pigments (sold separately) into your coating mixture. The pigments are UV-stable, which keeps the color from fading, warping, or cracking when exposed to sunlight.
