Cleaning "smooth" glossy plastic?

[Coderedpl]

Hello there all,

 

I recently picked up a new car and compared to my older ones this one has a few plastic pieces that are "glossy & smooth", so my main question is, how would I go about cleaning these? I took a regular utility towel the first time around and wiped it but then I noticed scratches so I'm thinking it's too rough for these parts.

 

Should I just use the single or double soft towels for these specific parts? I only have a few of them.

Some pictures below (yes it's dusty but that's because I like to drive with my windows down a lot, and they stay open a lot of the time too)

i would use either of the single soft or double soft towels,my car has alot of that chrome plastic on the inside & i had the same issue,if the surface is real dirty rather than just wipe it use some of the leather interior cleaner first.

Try some Adam's Revive Fine Hand Polish on those areas. You will probably want to tape and cover the surrounding areas to keep them clean.

I used FMP on my plastic side mirrors with a drill and the 4inch white pad. They came out nice. I would also suggest Revive in your case. Here are some pics of my mirrors.
