What could you use to restore faded bumper strips?

11th December 2009, 09:59

For faded strips i use GC New Look Trim Gel.
You'll need a quick detailer or some form of sealant. I would recommend Dodo Juice Red Mist
For your wax i would recommend using the Pb natty wax, its good for a starter and saves you having to pay 32.50 for some Dodo Juice.

ill need sealent for the wax?
is the dodo juice not better than the natty wax though?
P90PTS
11th December 2009, 11:23
Yeah ideally you polish, glaze, wax, seal.
It's all about personal preference. They are both waxes and both contain caranuba, just a differing price tag. If this is your first shot at waxing i'd more than definitely say the Pb stuff is the way forward.

yeah first time waxing, ok will consider it mate :y:
so the red mist is a sealer as well as a lube for clay?

What does every one recommend for cleaning up the VTR alloys and cleaning the exhaust tip?

Well it can be used as a lube but i wouldn't recommend it!
Just use the lube spray that comes with the megs kit.

I was going to say, Seal then Wax, not the other way around.
Is it not.
