Be it with your patio家具, some of your utensils, or your lawnmower, chances are that you have several items that are plastic. Plastic, while convenient to clean and also incredibly affordable, can get scratched over time or have its color get dull from being overly used, exposed to the sun, or basic wear and tear from having an item for a long time.
The question then is, how do you polish your favorite plastic item that you can’t discard? Plastic, just like other materials like metal, can be polished and restored to its former pristine state.

準備
Before we get into the depths of items needed to polish your plastic, let’s prep the area and then gauge the damage done. For mild scratches, you’ll not need heavy-duty chemicals, tools, or manpower. A little toothpaste and baking soda will do the trick.
無論是拋光的塑料，第一步都應該清潔它並擦拭幹淨，以去除任何汙垢和碎片。使用任何肥皂或洗滌劑水，然後洗下物品。如果它是像你的車前燈一樣的敏感表麵，那麼選擇專為它的汽車肥皂。洗完後，徹底幹燥該區域，然後正確檢查塑料劃痕和變色水平。
你需要什麼
The following items are on a scale of minor destruction on plastic to considerable damage like deep scratches.
Toothpaste
不是你期待看到的;然而，牙膏含有足夠磨蝕的礦物，以去除塑料上的細微劃痕。如果你有一個凝膠焚燒，還含有小蘇打，那麼更好。隻需將一小部分塗抹在棉布上並用圓形運動擦拭塑料。這樣做一段時間，直到你看到標記消失。用水和幹淨的布衝洗和擦拭。如果標記仍然很明顯，那麼重複該過程，直到您看到所需的結果。
Baking soda
Baking soda might be the holy grail for baked goods like muffins and cookies, but this solvent is a great item to have when cleaning. It’s used to clean the grout of tiles, sinks, toilets; now add plastic to that list. Mix a solution to your liking, perhaps one or two tablespoons, with enough water to make a thick paste. Use a cloth or even an old toothbrush to apply the solution to the plastic and clean in circular motions. This can be done several times to acquire the desired effect results and then rinsed and buffed with a lint-free towel.
Sandpaper
Sanding is a lot more aggressive than the options detailed above; therefore, it should only be used for highly damaged plastic that also covers a larger surface area. The trick is to, first of all, soak the sandpaper in water for about 10 -20 minutes and then also start small with a lower grit paper of about 220 grit and work your way up to 800 as you finish up. Mark off the area and ensure not to sand perfectly fine plastic because this will damage it as well. Sand the area while making circular motions and wipe it with a cotton cloth after. Repeat this several times until you get the desired outcome.
Metal polish
您可以選擇將此作為一個開始的補救措施，如上麵列出的選項，或者在發酵蘇打蘇打水，牙膏等之後使用它作為療法。你可能會注意到塑料在清潔時失去了光澤，看起來有點嚴峻。將該液體拋光劑塗抹在布料上並在圓形運動中塗抹該區域。您可能需要為解決方案工作20分鍾或更長時間，並且為解決其魔力而進行此操作。
Heat gun
不用擔心,這不是一個火災熱影響區ard waiting to happen, nor a case of plastic being melted. Once you do this well, it can offer perfect results, especially if all the options above have bared no fruit. What you’re looking to accomplish here is to burn off the affected area that will present the newer and smoother layer of the plastic without melting it.
There’s a delicate balance here which perhaps a professional would be best suited to handle. How do you know you’re getting the job done? Once it looks like a bead of water is running across the plastic, almost to the point of melting but not going all the way. Make sure the area around you when doing this is non-flammable, but as you can see, this isn’t an ordinary DIY method.
Polishing machine
您可以將手動方法從路上踢出，直線直接向承諾最佳結果的拋光機。也稱為拋光機，該裝置通常用於銅和黃銅等軟金屬，除了塑料。有一個柔軟的羊毛盤連接到機器上並以低速開始。使用當地商店的任何拋光霜或油塗在塑料上，並以最小的壓力越過，允許機器使該地區平滑並照耀。您可以隨時為每次嚐試提供速度，以確保您在所有這些劃痕上並完全避免它們。
塑料的維護
As they say, prevention is better than cure. Let’s look at ways you can prevent your plastic from reaching a deterioration level. You can make headway by preserving your plastics and keeping them in pristine condition. Here’s how;
Keep plastic away from direct sunshine
塑料和紫外線根本不起作用。當塑料吸收紫外線時，這導致塑料的變色和弱化。某些塑料帶有消除這個問題的塗料，但你永遠不會太確定。然而，在購買任何家庭物品時，使其在購買紫外線塑料時。這裏的最佳情況是讓您的塑料遠離陽光直射或為您的庭院購買椅子蓋。您可以在迷你涼亭下保持露台家具，或者如果它們是可折疊的，請將它們放在陰影中，隻在需要時使用它們。
定期清潔塑料
如果您的庭院家具經常使用，那麼努力清潔那些椅子和桌子，當它們用於立即清洗任何可能積累的汙漬時，可以擦去任何汙漬。因此，如果桌子上有咖啡或葡萄酒溢出，不要讓它幹涸，因為這些飲料中的化學品削弱了塑料。
此外，它隻是衛生，總是立即從食物或液體擦拭任何汙漬，以避免蒼蠅和蟲子。為確保您正確有效地清潔您的塑料，如您所在，我們已經圍繞了兩個基本的清潔技術，以確保您的塑料刺刺和跨度。
White Vinegar
The much-loved salad dresser doesn’t only apply for food. Just like baking soda, vinegar is great for cleaning surfaces with stubborn dirt or stains. Mix your vinegar with equal parts of water and put the solution in a spray bottle. Spray on the affected plastic that has been oxidized. This will take a couple of minutes to work, so leave the solution on the surface for 15-20 minutes before wiping it off with a cloth.
Detergent
對於塑料的椅子，隨著時間的推移，已經產生了潮濕和變色，請選擇正常的洗衣粉清潔和波動這些區域。你需要在這裏小心，因為非常磨蝕的解決方案將進一步摧毀你的塑料。在溫水中使用一湯匙洗滌劑，噴灑區域或使用桶，後來用軟管衝洗。
Pros of Having Plastic
雖然塑料總是被視為家居用品的較小材料選擇，但某些類型的塑料較好，耐用性和管理比黃銅或銅等材料更好。例如，塑料比金屬便宜得多，意味著製造成本低，導致市場上的多種多樣的產品購買。
塑料也很輕;因此，它很容易移動，特別是對於您的後院，通常具有在季節切換出來的臨時家具。添加到這是增加腐蝕性的抵抗力和重複使用物品。例如，一旦完成，花生罐可以作為您的穀物的容器加倍。
結論
請記住，並非所有家庭塑料物品都將在“是”堆中進行回收。塑料對環境非常有害;因此，重要的是要始終回收塑料，您不打算使用，以便可以正確處理。
請注意，房屋中的任何塑料物品都會丟失顏色和所有功能感或美容，這會導致丟棄它們。但是，如果您正在上麵鍛煉維護選項，那麼您不必擔心這一糟糕的塑料。從簡單的方法開始，並使用更複雜的塑料。
