Tried new treatment for the black bits

[GRNSHRK]

This stuff came as a suggestion from one of the attendees that came from Oregon last year to PSF, so I thought I'd pick some up and give it a try

It's called Solution Finish, and while it takes a bit to apply and wipe off, etc., I do like the results

Looks like it's time to deal with those pesky stone chips as well

I wish the previous owner(s) of my E30 had used something like that instead of semi-gloss black paint.

Paint?!?

Wow, that just ain't right

Sorry to hear, but live and learn, always more room in thee ole cranium for knowledge

I'm optimistic about this juice, but we'll see after sitting in the sun all day tomorrow, in a local car show

Looks good Bobbo. Is it an oil?

BTW - typical "easy restoration" to spray paint those headlight grills. I prefer greying and old to spray paint

Hey Ralph, sorry for the late reply

It doesn't appear to have an oil like feel to it, but it is a black colored liquid that soaks in and/or dries within a minute or 2

You do have to wipe off the excess with a clean cloth and of course, remove anything that got onto the painted surfaces or brightwork

Overall, I'm pleased so far

I was using tire gel previously, and while it's very shiny, it also remains sticky to the touch
