SEAT RESTO PROBLEM.
« on: May 25, 2009, 09:41 AM »
THIS HAS PROBABLY BEEN ASKED A DOZEN TIMES BEFORE.  I HAVE GOT A KASHIMAX SEAT WHICH HAS GOT ONLY SOME SMALL SCUFFS.  I HAVE SANDED IT WITH FINE
PAPER AND IT HAS COME UP OK, BUT WERE I'VE SANDED IT,  IT HAS LEFT A DULL MATT TYPE FINISH. IS THEIR ANYTHING I CAN IE: POLISH OR BLING IT UP WITH.

Honestly, try it I used it to restore my Kashimax Aero and it removed all the light scratches around the lettering and left it glossy and new again  :daumenhoch:

OK, thanks for that, but the scratches are on the top of the seat were it isn't glossy. Both sides are scratch free. will this stuff still work? ::)

Auto-glym bumper gel will bring the shine back up and the Neilsen bumper gel is even better! but they dont take scratches out ;) but as a colour restorer work excellent! ;)

I tried Tesco Tyre & Bumper restorer and it brought out the black quite nicely for £4.99
Every little helps.
