Best product to restore Bumper Strips/Skirts
I ran the hot air gun over one of mine today, and yes it's blacker than it was but still isn't great.
So, I was thinking, what are your tried and tested products that you perhaps swear by for getting them back to a uniform colour (pref' black lol)?

Anyone heard of it before?

if you get it, let us know how it pans out... I was just going to spray my sideskirts black...
I did think of that option, but if they start to flake/chip it looks really bad.

Re: Best product to restore Bumper Strips/Skirts
hot air gun only works well on some plastics, i use tesco bumper care its £1
the best stuff i ever had was comma trim black (in a blue can) you spray it on and let it dry, then buff it to a shine.
