Restoring rubber / plastic trim
 
Had been searching my brain trying to remember this product !
Google finally came to the rescue today :rolleyes: (DOH)

WIPE NEW

With all the exterior black plasticy / rubbery bits on our cars this should be the magic solution
we all need to use to make them shine again.

Available off ebay if you're lazy or from Autobarn, Auto 1 & PEP's

Go onto youtube if you don't believe it but daaaaayum it's good :eek:

Just rang the Australian suppliers of this & got the thumbs up regarding natural rubber, neoprene style moldings, vinyl dashes & trims etc as it is SAFE to use on all of these.

Went out today & bought some ($39.99 AUD) from Autobarn,
Now to strip off all the protectorant I only applied 2 Sundays ago :o

Pics to come of before & after BUT there actually wont be a huge difference on my trims as the car's always been garaged & they still are 99.9 % shiny & perfect.
Just want to keep them that way !!

Will be doing the ROLA roof racks 1st as they really do need a shine up ;)

I can visually see a good difference but don't know if it'll be picked up by camera ?
Guess you'll have to take my word on it ! ;)
