    Removing UK from plastic trim

    Hey all kinda new around here and need some help. I applied uk to my truck over the weekend and got some along my plastic trim. It has since cured all patchy and nasty and I wanna remove it so I can apply DLUX any suggestions?

    Now this may be a little tricky! Straight APC would definitely weaken the product, enough for a nice scrub, but may also affect the trim (if left on too long). Let's ask Corey to make sure!

    Thanks I have some high strength cleaners at my disposal but was also considering the fact it might have to be polished off with a mild abrasive but then would have to deal with polish residue on the trim and in the texture would be a pain

    Ahhhh I missed this! Actually been meaning to post a video of REFLECT on textured plastic Prep!! Stay tuned

    In my case the Dlux is over 2 years old on a DD and I'm polishing it off before reapplying
