Restore Mirror
The plastic on one of my mirrors has turned grey and looks a bit old compared to the other side that was replaced a few years back when somebody knocked it off the stand. Does anybody know how to get it back to looking black again?

Re: Restore Mirror
You can give the plastic a gentle heat with a heat gun to gently melt it which gives it its colour back

Re: Restore Mirror
Dont think the glass would eb affected, afterall glass is made at over 1000c. I would try some smooth peanut butter if you dont want to spend out, youtube it as its effective, should last a few weeks
