True story: While I was going though flight training, one of the pre-flight tests is a magneto loss test. You have two mags and swap between both and only one. Problem is the same key switch also goes all the way to ignition OFF. I was nervous the first time and gave it a little too much oomph and went right past R and L and straight to OFF. I immediately realized I screwed up and flipped it back to one of the running states and it backfired something fierce. Shook the whole plane.

It’s also used on plastic stadium seats, but the key there is also a much slower billowing flame. You don’t want a ton of heat blowing too quickly at it, you just need the heat to barely lick the surface so it melts and refreezes the plastic quickly, which will refinish the surface since the grime and oxidation will burn right off as it happens

The antilag hack is known as “keybang”, they work on older “carburetor” cars since there is no ECU to control the fuel going through the engine when you shut it off, and basically the engine is still kinda running when the switch is OFF but the fuel isn’t ignited, goes into your tail pipe, and when you switch back ON, BOOM! EFI cars basically shuts the fuel pump (when you turn the car off) so there is no Bang….

For the black plastic that’s faded, if you melt coconut oil and use a paper towel to spread it on, it makes the plastic pretty and black for a month or so, depending on how much sun the car gets

So the hack with the plastic trim and torch. Your biggest issue is you are using MAP gas I believe which burns hotter than propane. I used to work at a plastic rotational molding company and we would use the big propane weed burning torches to bring the color out on products. The heat realigns the plastic molecules which gives it that fresh shinny look. Love the video boys! Keep em coming!

MAPP burns way hotter than propane, but no one makes MAPP any more. That was almost certainly Map Pro, which is propylene, which is only marginally hotter than propane. I think they were mostly just holding it too close.

A little bit of compound helps with the burn you can get with buffing, preferably hit it after you spur off your pad between sections. Drills dont have enough rpm to get that shine needed, you need a buffer IMO

Also I'm sure it depends on the gas that you use; propane versus butane. I believe butane burns a ton hotter, so propane is the way to go. I've seen videos of this working on sun damaged stadium bleacher seats using a larger flamethrower nozzle and further distance from the nozzle in the plastic resulting in lower heat. Makes me wonder if this might work done fogged up headlights 🤔

Regarding the Anti-Lag hack, this generally only works on cars with a Carburetor as opposed to EFI. As with a Carby, the fuel / air is mixed by purely mechanical actuation and passive fluid dynamics, which continues even once the spark plug is disconnected. The combustible mixture will be passed out the exhaust valve and start to fill the tailpipe. The longer you have it 'off' for, or more you pump the gas, the bigger bang you get! This works extremely well on older cars, and in most cases if you overdo it, you will blow a hole in the muffler (permanently giving you that sweet aftermarket exhaust sound). In reality it sounds more like a backfire than an Anti-Lag system. It can be great fun if have a car you don't care about, and want to scare the crap out of anyone nearby!

the torch method is good but if the fiberglass content of the plastic is too high it will burn. door handles need to take lots of abuse so the fiberglass content in those is much higher and as a result these parts usually have the most faded looks and are hard to bring back to life. you have to wax the hell out of them basically.
