Default How to smooth plastic?

I've got some plastic - the kind of plastic a hairdryer, or the main

like its flawless moulded surface before I gouged one of the edges...

What will be a good way to do this? Very fine sandpaper? A very sharp
blade to pare off some sharp bits sticking out? Heated metal to smooth
it down?

Thanks,

Some wet and dry "sandpaper" would get it nice and smooth but
obviously take the shine off the plastic.
