Grey bumpers - sorted

top tip

if your bumpers are greying... weathered and old now forget products, or gels or sprays or groundnut oil or boot polish

get a heat gun and 30 mins and sort it.

Mine look BRAND new now.

Yea, defo need pics, ideally before & after & maybe a little write up? Technique or whatever!

Don't forget to leave the gun in the right place for long enough, you need to make sure you get that 'just melted' look

It'll last about 1 month then go back to grey. You cant keep doing it either as it will damage the plastic. Old car salesmans trick to make the cars look like new

well if you take some decent macro shots we'll be able to see just 'how' black they are, whether you got into all the nooks and crannies etc...

as 88 said... it's always useful for comparison...

something like this 50/50 would have been ideal so you can see the old and the 'new' in the same shot

2nd'd best thing on the market is Autoglym bumper care gel. Green slime looking stuff but does wonders to black plastic trim and lasts too. Not the spray "back to black" poo - that is just sh#te

This stuff lasts 6 months plus - especially if occasionally wiped down with Autoglym AquaWax after washing
