Default Local Store Question: Plastic Polish

Where can I pick up locally a good plastic polish. Say PepBoys, AutoZone, etc? I know even WalMart & target carry Meguiars stuff sometimes.

I need something to clean up the exterior surface of my headlights.

TIA

Many Autozone, Advance and PepBoys carry:

Meguiar's #17, Mirror Glaze Clear Plastic Cleaner
Meguiar's #10, Mirror Glaze Clear Plastic Polish
Read here - http://www.meguiars.com/product_show...cfm?SrcLine=CP
At Advance, it's in the Marine section.

At my local Harley-Davidson Dealer, I can get:
Novus #1 Plastic Clean and Shine
Novus #2 Fine Scratch Remover
Read here - http://www.sdplastics.com/novus.html

There are single stage products such as Plexus and PlastX, but I have not tried them.

Thanks D/O. I reviewed my weekend plans and decided it would be better to purchase online I pulled the trigger on the 3 Meguiars products.

you can purchase a package that contains all 3 of the novus products at your local Container Store for $7.99 (or at www.containerstore.com if there isn't one around in your area)

I bought a cleaner from Wal-Mart called BlueMagic. Its a plastic cleaner and was real cheap ($4) so I had no expectations. It worked excellent and removed almost all scratches from my lens. It worked so good I went and bought 4 more bottles incase they go out of business Good results for onle $4
