I went Down to Bunnings this Morning and picked up some Thinners & Boiled Linseed Oil, made up the 40% Oil & 60% Thinners.
Applied the Mix and Started Rubbing, i must of been rubbing To Hard, Cos there was a BANG and a Heap of Smoke.

You Wouldn't Believe it, a Jeanie Appeared before my Eyes and Said " Do Bother Rubbing in that Mix, here's a new Set of Plastics"

So yeh, it does work !!!

Yes it works quite well, but you can never get Old Plastics looking like new. " It's a Bit like trying to make Pig Sh!t into Strawberry Jam !!1
