how do i get my gti spoiler black again?
« on: 01 February 2010, 23:00 »
Hi all

As the title really,

Bought a gti spoiler off the bay, it looked ok so i stuck it on with sikaflex now its starting to look a bit grey. i've tried the usual stuff like back to black, shoe polish, different oils and stuff like that but nothing seems to be workin i think its because the plastic is different to the trims.

is painting it an option? satin black or somethin like that ?

any help will be appreciated  :laugh:

cheers

Heat gun will bring the color back as it kick starts the chemicals inside.

the FINE Peanut Butter you buy in the supermarket supposedly good. just rub it in and the oils in it bring the shine back.

I've never tried this but its supposed to work.
