Default Covering fine scratches on interior plastics?

Is there a cleaning product on the market that can cover / fill the fine scratches you get on some of the plastic interior panels and restore them to an 'as new' finish ... looked everywhere and can't find anything!?

The only thing I found was Meguires plastX - and its a load of poo - the only thing it did do was take a few scratches out of the speedo clock plastic.

are they coloured plastics?

ie: dash etc etc?

if they are handles and stuff, they can be filled and repainted, totally depends on the surface, a smart repair bloke will be your best bet

Cheers guys

Yeah, it was the coloured plastic areas like the speaker surround / pocket on the door and the plastic near the footwells (besides the gear-stick) etc.

Aye, no products as such, but as Micky says, most interior plastics can be resprayed (and colour coded at the same time!).
