Thinking of purchasing the above captioned gun. The Zytel has numerous scrapes and marks. Is there any product that can polish this material? Thanks.

You can use a plastic headlight cover polishing kit from an automotive parts store; or Howard's Feed-N-Wax, which will make scratches invisible.

Nicks/gouges are forever.

Besides the one listed, there are many products that will perform well for you. Currently I am using a product called; Novus-1 & Novus-2. Home depot also sells a product that is used to polish plastic sinks. Can't recall the name but it comes in a pint metal can with a metal threaded cap. I also use the Novus polish on Poly coated stocks like the ones you see on Brownings.

Perhaps I should look for a cleaner example, but as you know, this is a pricey rifle.

I was amazed how much these were going for, the latest one in really good shape went to $470. The one bolt action one went for $525. To think that I used to scoff at these Mattel Plastic rifles. Even the clip magazine is going for $70. I would imagine a plastics supply house would have what you need to polish this plastic. I am sure it is a multi step process like it is for plexiglass. I will say though the Remmy Mohawk in .308 with that plastic stock was a good looking rifle with that rib and schnobble.
