Weather Stripping, and Black plastic areas
Hey guys, my weather stripping and mirrors are starting to look bad. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to use to restore and make them black again? I have read about Mothers Back to Black and found mixed reviews? Thought maybe someone else had ran into this and found a good product.
Thanks, James |

Re: Weather Stripping, and Black plastic areas
We've got a site sponsor, Adam's Polishes, who has GREAT products for just about anything you want to clean on your truck. The VRT is one of the nicest products I've used so far. P's Titan is the guy to contact about the products on here. He'll set you up and give you some good advice. Plus you get a discount if you use the code FOLGER when ordering Adam's Products through here. It really does work!

Plus it lasts quite a long time. Periodic refreshening can be done with just a wipe. Give Pat a shout. He'll hook you up.
