Back to Black (Weather Worn Sun Bleached Window Trims Ect)

Postby Spankem » Wed Sep 14, 2011 9:36 pm

Just thought I`d share with you all what I use to keep my Trim ect looking like new on my Gen 2 :)
Most of you proberly use this or something similiar , I use Simonize Back to Black , which I find brings sun bleached Trims ect looking like new near enougth as you can see from the photo`s I still have the original Trims ect and it brings it up nice
I find spaying it on a soft cloth and then applying it works better than spraying directly on your trims as it prevents over spray

I Also use it on my Window Wiper arms to keep then looking like new

You can see the differance here to


So if ya not sure what to use to get that Sun Bleached weather worn trim back to black this is what I would recommend

Well I hope this little post is helpful to some :)

Back to Black isn`t a paint mate its a Bumper shine and cleaner , that helps to keep your trims ect looking original and like new

why would you want to spray paint them :?:

or if your on about the wipers , why spray paint them when all you have to do is wipe them over when you clean your car

I use autoglym plastic renovator. Never found anything that comes close and unlike most it's semi permanent so doesn't just wash straight off

It's like a gel. If you get the plastic clean and free from grease (I use panel wipes) it absorbs into the plastic. Probably same results as you get now but longer lasting :)

I find back to black to wash away once it starts to rain, looks bad afterwards. Im still using it as its there so i may as well keep using it.

Yep its good stuff, make sure to get any off the paint work as it always attracts muck like a magnet.
