noone Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Okay like most I have armorall lying around from gifts etc Use it to detail the tyres mostly My doorhandles and glovebox handle thingo are nearly white Most people say armorall is the devils work etc. My older revhed mates all say hit the handles repeatedly with the armorall will eventually make em look the correct color what is everyone using my handles look bad rest of the interior is pretty resonable other than the remnants on my dash of the black silicon previous owner used to attach the boost gauge that will be the next mission I guess Any suggestions????????????????

l_uk3y Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I accidentally got a couple of drops of the stuff on my new leather gear boot. instantly took the color out of it. Now on the blue leather there is a couple of white spots that I'm stuck with. Not looking forward to the comments that passengers may come up with I wont be using it again.

jaypea Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 aren't your handles a sort of hard plastic? think armorall is more suited to vinyl/rubber, you'd prolly be better off trying something like meguiar's trim detailer or something like that Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/305720-armorall/#findComment-5060456 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volk34 Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I dunno, iv never had a problem with it, but I have also had allot of people saying I shouldn’t and if you don’t keep one putting it on it eventually increases the chances of cracks :S Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/305720-armorall/#findComment-5061498 Share on other sites More sharing options...

warps Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Armor all is evil It's basically a mix of solvent and sealer. The solvent gets in and attacks the plastic (vinyl / whatever) and the sealer seals it in to let it keep attacking. You be the judge. And it costs about 25c a bottle to make.

HOWIROL Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 I detail cars for a living and have found anything Maguiars is the shit! Not only do they work well but all their products smell good too, doesnt smell like chemicals. Amour all is absolute crap and will cause damage eventually. If the plastic wont go back to its original colour try a bee's wax, that fixes most things! If that fails you may have to replace the parts effected. Hope this helps.

Rekin Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 I use Mothers Naturally Black, you can buy from any auto shop. Pour onto the plastic, let it sit on it for a couple of minutes, then massage it into the plastic. Then buff it after it has dried. Its a longer process than all the typical black restorations, but this is different as it isnt just some black liquid to hide the faded plastic.

krzysiu Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Maguires interior wipes. Come in a pack of 25, only need about 2 for the whole interior. Turns out really well.
