Back To Black

[Mr Mole]

just seen Wheeler Dealer on sky & they were giving u some tips on restoring the black trim on your car & they said you should use Smooth Peanute Butter on black trim 2 get it back 2 original colour and it lasts longer than products made 4 the job and i suppose if u get hungary half way through the job u could allways make yourself a sandwich with it

[WylieCoyote]

Now that's the kind of motoring tip we need. Car products that are effective, and tasty too lol!!

Please feel free to use peanutbutter but don't come back complaining your car is surrounded by chimps..... :P

[TigerFish]

I've used peanut butter for years. Removes white deposits left on trims from polish too :winky:

[D8driver]

Other tip: margarine works perfect if you want to remove tar spots/stains from your paint.

and: if you put some of the high gloss liquid for your dishwasher in the last two buckets of water you clean your car with, no chalk stains wil appear (in fact wash boxes use the same stuff to give your car a bright gloss)

i was told by a dealer if you want to get your tyres to shine use neet fairy liquid, Paint it on with a brush and let it dry to a nice shine?? it does work but i'm a bit suspect to what happens if it rains and is it safe? being as its soap on your tyres... :o :)

cooking oil is a nother common tip for getting faded bumpers etc back to black! not heard peanut one though, interesting.

I've never herd half of these tips but i know i'll be out on the weekend giving them a try

[rudy]

on a serious note, i've been using a silicon spray to darken my tyres and it normally lasts for about 1-2 months.

I use Meguiars Endurance High gloss Tyre Gel stuff makes a mess of your hands even when using an aplicator but looks the nuts and lasts quite a long time!

....and im sure the fairy liquid would bubble up and give you a nice white wall effect if nothing else! lol.......
