Heatgun on faded plastics is good as well, draws the oils out of the plastic to restore them back to original colour 2008 RRS 2.7TD in Stornoway grey, black leather and 22 inch alloys

I've just painted mine. Fed up of using various restorers to have to do it again a few months later. Used a product called 'Buzzweld Plastic In One' (as recommended by Mikey ). Also decided to paint the rear tailgate release button, the front headlamp washers and the rear wiper arm.

Never mind all that phaf, mix some linseed oil and white spirit together (50/50) and wipe that on. It's much better than anything I've ever bought, and lasts months, well I did this last summer on my RRS and it doesn't need doing yet.

I used an old bottle of auto glym bumper care I bought as a clearance sale ages ago,,, takes 5 mins to apply and brings back the colour nicely.. It doesn't last forever but for what it cost and the time it takes to apply is worth it,,,,, works really well under the bonnet as well,, all the black plastic looks great.

Update, I did use this stuff and found it to be really quite good, lasted all winter, so will do it again in late spring to make it dark again,, Not the cheapest option but reasonably effective..

Hi Rob, I don't have my L320 any more but it was still perfect when I sold it last September.
