polish a nylon 66 stock
I picked up a Nylon 66 at an auction today. The stock looks like someone sanded it lightly. Is there a way to polish it back to factory finish?

I would try one of the many car headlight repair kits I have also
used brasso to polish plastic with good results0 -
Sure. Depending on how rough the finish is start with maybe very fine wet dry sand paper or maybe automotive rubbing compound and keeping going to a finer grade till you get the finish you desire. Good luck. 0 -
There was an aviation product call 'mirror glaze'? used to polish windshields.

From the Remington Service Manual:

Listed below is the recommended method of restoring the finish on the Nylon stock.
Scratches: Use finely powdered pumice stone and oil. Rub with felt pad. Wipe clean and dry.
Abrasion: Use Du Pont auto rubbing compound. Rub with cloth pad. Wipe clean and dry.
For Polishing: Use Du Pont auto waxes.
To Clean Checkering: Use stiff tooth brush.0 -

This is what I've used on Tenite stocks as well, and good results every time.0 -
After rubbing compound, then go to DuPont polishing compound. 0 -
