We all know we have those ooops moments.  The ah sh!t moments.

Mine I discovered a few months later when scraping the right side front bumped on a curb.  It didnt break it, and when I looked at the time it didnt seem to have nay damage.  Noticed yesterday in the sun that there was gouging and rough plastic now.  Minor thing compared to what it could of been, buit it must of bent up, which was better than not bending and snapping.

Anyway, I got rid of all the rough parts on the edge with the old lighter trick, and even smoothed up as best as I could the rest.

But of course there are still scars and gouges.  Is there any rubbing compound for plastics that can help with this.  I also have a few as Im sure many of us do on my bed panels.  Not matter how careful you, things just happen.
