We got this funky tyre gloss stuff that you spray on the tyres and the rims and it looks like snow and as if the car has been driving through flour. But when it drives oh boy does it shine. I tried it on the sideskirt (small testing area obviously) and it worked a dream there too. But was worried that overall it may have an effect on the plastic and maybe make it fade over a period of time..

I don't think I would try cutting compuond as it would end up fading as it is plastic :undecided: Some guys use good old boot polish as it fills and polishes :wink:

Oops, so that is not paint? Black plastic? Whoops.
