i find the best stuff ot keep the arches black is the jet wash wax at bp garages, i dont use back to black or anything, and mine are black! just jetwash every now and then! | |

That autoglym stuff brought them up a treat. But I applied it about a month ago and have just done it again cos they faded a bit (although no where near as bad as they were). Is there anything iI can get to put onto of it to protect it a bit and make it last or is it just a case of applying it when its needed? | |

remove bumpers and trim and use a hot air gun for stripping wallpaper on them, it melts the surface and makes them look brand new | |
