Restore those trim pieces and go gloss black on everything

Whats the best thing for restoring trim pieces?

 

[smac4494]

Isopropyl alcohol works well

Skoda splitter. And then something Lairy like green or red

Depends what you want from the car. Wnat an original looking one and a "restoration" project then it has to be silver, or something like a shade darker.
Or you go full yob and go a bright colour. The later generally suits track cars.

Do them the brightest silver you can

Then dress all the plastics

Isopropyl alcohol works well

Only to clean old oils off the trim.

You need to follow up with a trim dressing like auto finesse revive

Can anyone photoshop the wheels in black/bright silver/orange and yellow?

 

[imprezaworks]

Remember to use a trim dressing afterwards. Ipa will just clean the oils off the trim, it won't restore colour

But yes, that ebay number will do, then get something like auto finesse revive to bring the colour back out of them


Wash > dry > alcohol > trim dressing
