Chalky plastic

My grill and headlight bezels are fine. But they are faded and chalky. wondered if they will take paint. Has anyone found a way to seal these for paint or restore them to look like new?

Re: Chalky plastic

I've done it. If its just chalky then sand it till its smooth and you can no longer scratch it with your nails. If its very chalky and you sand it takes away from the shape of the bezel then it's time to get new or lightly used ones
