£5.99 a bottle, lasts ages

ive put vinyl and rubber care on the black bits b4! its fine inside but tends to go streaky outside (was free so im not bothered) looks alright with a bit of hard work

just using it until i can get it colour coded

Mix 1/8 cricket bat oil (gone a blank on what its called)

7/8 White spirits then put it on with a cloth. When it has dried of / evaporated do it again if need be. Sometimes took 5 attempts before the plastic strips were realy clean.

Linseed Oil!!!

use baby oil (seriously)

stays black for ages, and makes cleaning them much easier

and yes, its called linseed oil, got about 3 bottles in the house

I use that Williams (cough cough) silicon based gel from (evil) Halfords. Comes in a silver plastic bottle. It seems to restore the black colour to the trim rather than polishing over the top of the faded plastic.

easy people. if your lookin at painting any part of your nice little clio in the near future i highly recommend you STAY AWAY from back to black and ANYTHING which contains silicon. it will f*ck up the prep n paint.
