Black plastic bits

[jonathanedew]

A few weeks ago I managed to get polish/wax on the black plastic bits on the mirror backs, washer and fog light surrounds.

Now they show a whitish smear :dapprove:

Going to Halfrauds tomorrow - what's best product to buy to restore them to a nice black shine please?

Just colour code them

use a rubber / eraser on them !

no joke.. the marks come off

then as for product to make it look nice.. i like Autoglym bumpercare

Rubber eraser to get the wax off, Clean them up with a bit of fairly liquid and water. Then put smooth peanut butter over them (brings them up a treat), Or some bumper care/blackener gel.

Linseed oil

Clean them up with a bit of fairly liquid and water.

might aswell wash the whole car with that

I've got a sponge that removes polish marks.

Yes... a sponge. It's actually amazing.

Turtle wax ice does a good job if ya only going to halfords. Gets mocked but it works.

Is there no way of like, spraying them so that they go a bit darker, without colour coding them?

Peanut butter on a tooth brush mate. tried and tested. Not the chunky stuff though. Use it on my trim when polishing goes a bit wayward.

you could, but for the time and effort that would take....you may aswell spray them the colour of your car!

Auto glym Bumper care all the way

The black plastic bits are the same on my car. I bought some AG bumper care to use on it whenever I can be bothered.

I'll have a go with an eraser too

Seriously, PEANUT BUTTER!!!!! I'm not going to tell you again Eraser doesn't work. AG bumper just covers it.
