    after going through the different stages of sanding, you can apply 4 to 6 coats of mop and glow floor wax. make sure you use fine steel wool between coats and let each coat fully dry. it will give the plastic a high gloss and stays on pretty good. however, if you use any solvent based cleaners, it will remove the coating.
