exterior black

ctkulig · 03-21-2010, 04:00 PM

What's a good product to use on exterior black to make them shine real nice?
Like under the front bumper where the driving lights (fog) are, and by the windows between front and back doors. Mine are starting to dull and would them to shine so it looks sharp.

Looking for something that will hold up fairly well

Thanks

my car looked like absolute crap after i used a squeegee to dry it over the winter. i just waxed it and it looks amazing. i am only using a cheap liquid turtle wax, but it really helps.

Try using Back-to-Black, Fade-to-Black, Black Wow, or a tire dressing on black plastic or rubber trim.

Black Wow is amazing!

I've used it for a long while on my Minis which had so much black trim!

I just used back-to-black on the black trim around the mirrors of my kids' E46. It had faded to grey but looks phenominal now.

megs trim detailer, poorboys trim detailer, megs hyper dressing. then top with a UV protectant like 303 and you should be good to go for a while
