Just tried the Meguires rubber and plastic spray (cream), WOW my 308 bumpers have never looked that good. This stuff is like a new car in a bottle. I love it on the side grills as well. It's like a cream that sprays...great stuff. |

I like the finish I get when using Meguiars Endurance tire dressing on the bumpers of my GT4. It also worked well on the air-intake and oil cooler duct hoses. Nice and shiny  |

BMW sells a rubber care product that is great. You can get it from any BMW dealer parts dept. |

Welcome Bob... I'm getting ready to put new brakes on my 308GTB this weekend, so a cold Grolsch would be great! As far as the black areas you refer to, I have had good luck removing the oxidized outer layer using rubbing compound on areas that need a lot of attention. Then I would follow up with a good polish. I also purchased a couple of nice buffers. A larger one, and a smaller one to fit tighter areas. They come in handy...

Try 2001 tire finish! I use it to finish engine bays, it dries out and leaves a natural look on hoses etc.. It will also work on rubber finish bumpers. Mequiars have a good black trim treatment, available at Autozones here. |

The black plastic/rubber on the bumpers and roof buttresses of my Mondial could use some spiffing up. Anyone have some recommendations for a dressing to improve their appearance? This is my first post to FerrariChat. Been a lurker for a couple of months to this terrific forum. I live in Lovettsville, VA, a deep deep burb of DC hard by the Blue Ridge. In addition to the Mondial, I've got a 67 small block Corvette and an old Empi Imp recently restored by my son and I. Visitors welcome any weekend. The Heinies and Grolsch are always cold.
