Looking for a flexible plastic, equivalent to TPE shore A 50-60. Finish to be similar to ABS or PC, which mean high gloss, polish finish; that can be injection molded. Can somebody recommend a plastic resin that meet those criteria?

The Evoprene line from Alpha Gary (800-232-9741) or the Thermolast line from Kraiburg TPE (678-584-5020) would be good options based on your requirements. You can check out datasheets or search by key design properties here: www.ides.com/prospector.
