Black Bumpers and side trims

[W20TOM]

Just a quick question ....

Does anyone know anything that is good for maintaining the black on the bumpers, side trims and wheel arches?

Real good stuff bud, find it better than AG bumper care, could always try peanut butter smooth or baby oil as there pretty good to.

paint them satin black mate..

Do they stay black when painted though?

[saxowest]

Yes mate should be found this on the internet what someone has said



Rustoleum Satin Black is almost a perfect match for the stock finish. I've used it on my bumpers with success, and it's proved to be very durable and resistant to chips, wear, and fading. Definitely prep the surface well and use a good primer first (I just used the Rustoleum primer) to get the best results.

I personally like carlack 68 plastic care, gives a nice clean look.

smooth peanut butter ;) ain't joking mate , i watched this show afew weeks back this guy polished up the bumpers etc with it !! i gave it a try and it works a treat , just don't throw too much on it a little at a time , gives it a deep gloss look and its cheap too :cool:

your welcome mate , the best thing its non toxic , after using dash polish etc you come out of the car like you've had a heavy night on the glue !! LOL , so its nice to use something that don't give up a headache for a change ;)

[Rob-6]
