best exterior cleaner for bumpers?
« on: January 11, 2012, 08:55:06 pm »
Just run out of my trusted AG bumper care and thinking of trying something a bit more long lasting to apply to lower rear bumper and side skirts.
Also looking for some good advice on what to use on front honeycomb grill and fog light vents ?
Have read some excellent reviews of C4 permanent trim restorer, but at £30 a bottle seems a bit steep,any ideas or recomendations guys ?

I've used both AG bumper care, which I find gloopy, and poorboy's natural look dressing. Neither lasts particularly long but I'll do the plastic and rubber trims up every few months.

Remember, C4 will last a very long time compared to these other products and you pay for that in terms of cost.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Sesame seed oil.....  :wink:

Natural product, plus not gloopy and sticky like some dressings.
