Vuplex Vs Mr Sheen put to the test
Iv just got back from a couple weeks up at Exmouth without cleaning the boat at any stage .
Ive seen advice on this forum about using Mr sheen on clears instead of the more expensive products such as Vuplex and Plexus etc . I normally use Vuplex and had some on hand but decided to get some Mr Sheen and do a comparison . I washed down the clears with the hose but did not rub them down , just let them dry . Now for the test . Half done with Vuplex and half with mr sheen . Both products did a good job on restoring some clarity to the clears . There a few years old so not in pristine condition . But I must say that mr sheen did a better job than the other . Clarity was a bit better and seemed to get the dirt off easier and left a nicer polished feel to the plastic . At a quater the price of Vuplex , I know what I'll be using from now on .
Hope this helps someone
cheers Paul

Dr Chemical on the radio
Dr Chemical on the radio reckons Mr Sheen is the best glass cleaner you can get and I agree as I discovered this a while ago. It's awesome stuff.

good to know, thanks mate. I had some Plexus and it worked well but bloody expensive (I thought).

Don't use mr sheen on window tint, it'll start to flake off in no time.

Don't where you got that
Don't where you got that from, there's nothing in it to damage window tint. Silicone emulsion, white sprit and polishing waxes, so it's a very soft non aggresive product.

That's interesting because
That's interesting because I've done a bit of research and a lot of the car forums actually recommend it to clean car tint.

Mr sheen
straith I think you can use it on fibreglass too, I had a mate many years ago who swore by it to polish and clean the paint on his cars, his cars always looked exceptional I think it is a fairly versatile product.
