After a little incident of my brothers kid finding it and using it all on his car, I have none of it left, (The stuff I has was Car Plan's version). It wasn't that good but I'm wondering if anyone else used something similar to this, that's pretty good.

Cheers

I use simoniz bumper black, cost abotu 50p in a special somewhere, does the job.

I need to get some blue coloured polish, need to try and bring the faded front bumper back to colour.

You're in luck, I just happened to spot some special formulated... Err stuff just for that very reason and it's been designed by the Williams F1 team!

Seriously though, see if you can grab that Turtle wax stuff (think it's called colour fast or magic or something), I used it on my brothers car once (Red Rover 214) and it came out really nice, used it on my bumper too a while back before I resprayed it so it's not bad stuff (Considering it's like 8 year old now)

I think baby oil brings faded plastic bumpers up nice.

found some back to black and sprayed it on my front bumper, brought the blue back up, not as rich and deep as the lower part but a lot better than the dull blue/grey.
