I used to own a mk1 - well I've had 2 actually - YDU 720X & SMU 420Y. Currently I drive an 98 Scotia White Mitsubishi Evolution V RS…. fancy getting another mk1 someday

my rear arches were faded so bad that it looked like someone had poured bleach all over them!! i tried a few sprays and gels and they would always work for about a week or two.but with the turtle wax gel it restores the colour back for mucj longer..

I'm going to try this on my MK2 bumpers so I will let you know how it goes and possibly post some pics. You have to be careful or it can all go very pear shaped!!!

Hopefully you will get to see them in the plastic (as it were) when I manage to collect the engine! ops:

Leaves no film or residue and leaves tyres etc brilliant black with a slight sheen. Just spray on its like a milky water and repeat after 30mins for it to last longer. For bumbers etc spray onto cloth and wipe works a treat.
Plus its only ?2.49 from good old wilkos.
Give it a go you will be impressed.

I'll post some before and after photos. Expect to see melted drooping bumpers here soon It's worked well for me on other cars though.

I'll do my mk2 with the heat gun but there's no way i'm getting a heat gun anywhere near my new genuine arch trims on the mk 1 (not that they need it). No panic on the engine although i'm getting hitched on the 12th november and on honeymoon for 3 weeks after - not that thats a problem just won't be about . :y:

This means for about 8quid you dont have to do them again (as long as you remember to mask out the surrounding area while you do it!!)

I use "permenant" colour treatment called Bumper Coat for hard plastics - It does not come off!
Check out this thread which shows some pics of done bumpers and arches:

Go to "My account" on the left
Then click "Your info"
Put your details in the signature box and update tick relavant boxes
Rob - is that stuff a paint or a bonding treatment - how tempermental is it with previous coatings etc?
