Buy some Simoniz Back to Black Bumper Gel!

Smooth peanut butter. Looks a mess when it first goes on, but fine once polished off.

It's only about a £1 a tub, so try it. It won't last 2 years like others say, but at that price, who cares

does it bead?

Hopefully that photo works from the app.

I did this really quickly on Monday night and it started to rain whilst doing it, but I was just intrigued if it'd work and had bought some peanut butter that day. Hadn't cleaned the plastic before hand and it was looking sun bleached and also had some polish on it from doing the bodywork. I also did it with kitchen roll, which wasn't ideal, but it was just a test.

A week later, I'd say it works

I just poured some water on so I could take the photo. Spray enough lightly and I'd say it would show the lighter beading.

GroundNut oil works too!
£2 for a 500ml bottle
onto a cloth - buff into plastic

WD40 works - but the overspray onto screen is a bad idea

Old engine oil works as well

Autoglyms bumper gel is okay

I haven't tried anything else tho at the moment

the bottle is TINY but a little goes a long long way ive had my bottle about 3 years now and only half used

it might not be the best stuff in the world but i like it a lot i use those little make up applicator pads.. to apply stuff like this it makes it far more economical which can be had from the birds section in most super market / boots.......

(or i beg my sister for a few as you would look a right poof buying them in boots ) but be warned theft of said applicator pads is no acceptable apparently some of this face slap stuff and accessories ((she did have some lovely foam pads)) are very expensive only this was explained to me in a bit of a rage ...... Still cheaper than most "detailing suppliers" however

Haha cheers for the info, good tip about the applicator pads I never thought to use them (probably because they aren't something I see on a daily basis , I'll be sure to "borrow" some of the girlfriend though)

50ml Bottle :slayer:

Hold on, it's 500ml and at 3 for 2 minus your 10% works out at under £2.40 a bottle!
