Beats me. But I'm pretty sure I read on the back of the bottle that it was not recommended for plastics.

Likely more the propellent in the aerosol version would be my guess. Some of the chemicals used in spray cans can damage plastics. Hard to say for sure though, better safe than sorry. If it says don't - I wouldn't!

Is the Adam's Glass sealant ok to use on the plastic headlights? Or would using wax/sealant be better/worst?

Another +1 to Plexus (works to get marks off of the B-pillers too!)

New thing i found was that if you use presoaked high grit sandpaper and sand it for a while (I used 100, 1500, 2000) then coat it with some rubbing compound, and of course polish it makes it look brand new!
