alvin009 Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Put on wax everytimes after use? Can a set of armor be used for over 10 years? Please suggest Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SethB6025 Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Most shiny armor is pulled from a gloss ABS or Styrene. You can polish it though, with plastic polish. (the kind of stuff you would use on a bathtub) Of course, if you go dirty, you never have to worry about that. As far as lifespan, I've had mine five years and have had no problems. It takes occasional maintenence, but it could probably last as long as you want it to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tk432 Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 ive heard of them starting to yellow out.. but i think that depends on how you keep it and where u store it. (just get it dirty ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alvin009 Posted June 6, 2005 Author Share Posted June 6, 2005 Thanks! I know UV makes armor get yellow.... Is this the suitable chemical (Plastic Polish) for polishing Armor? Should I use wax (automobile type) also? http://www.noscratch.com/novus/number1.shtml http://www.autopia-carcare.com/bgi-20207.html http://store1.yimg.com/I/autopia_1843_275893 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SethB6025 Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 That should work, also if the armor is painted, it could have a gloss top-coat. I guess that could be polished too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theo Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 Dude, go dirty!!!!!!!!!! That was my first thought as well. Seems like just the wrong forum to ask about keeping your armor shiny. Unless you're asking for your 'other' set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
