Bufty question...black bumpers
 

Girlfriends car (clio) has loads of black plastic on it, most of which has turned greyish/whitish colour.

What is the best off the shelf product (Halfords) to return it to black, that wont need doing every other day like other products I have tried.

Cheers


Cookie :)

The Meguiars tyre gel is good for this. It lasts for weeks, not days as the label says. I use it and it is good.

Cookie,

There is a new product out (in this weeks auto express) they recommended it. Made by Turtle wax I will dig out the name and post up later.

Going to get some myself as I have some white marks on the bit by the front number plate :mad:

nice one mate. :thumb:


I used tyre gel on it before, making the problem worse, it looked great for a week or so then :brickwall

Cookie,

stuff is called:

Turtle Wax Platinum Series Restorative Black Bumper & Trim Wax (nice easy name to remember :rolleyes: )

£5.99 not even on their website yet though but gets 4 stars from auto express.

I will be trying Halfrauds later.

the autoglym stuff is the dogs as far as off the shelf stuff goes. if you have some quick detailer go over them with that and a terry cloth first to remove grime. :thumb:

personally i use zymol creame wax. at £48 a pot it's a bit expensive to use on bumpers but the finish is top notch :thumb:

Zymol have somthing called detail wax just for bumpers and trim. Still a bit steep but £17 is better than £48 :)

lol. £17 is a whole lot better than £48!

do you have to order this stuff on line, or can I pick some up today

not sure. halfrauds may have it, if not they'll have the ag one.

The only place i've seen it is on Zymol, Concours, Detailing, Valeting - Parc Ferme Homepage

bufties will shoot me down here,
but i used castrol synthetic oil on the xr2 the other day, and it came up bling !!!
