Re: Gray fender flares.. seeing is believing
Shoe polish doesn't even work that well on shoes. Old honor guard tip
was to use Fiebings black dye, then spit shine with Kiwi, then a thin coating of Klear floor wax. If shoe polish gets old or wet or both it displays whitish deposits. The black magicolor car wax works better, but not as good as plastic paint or mild heat. 4X4PLAY proclaimed: > I use the back to black aswell...but a friend of mine who is the Martha > Stwarts of clean Jeeps swears the best way to make them look new and black > is to use black shoe polish... > > > Jeff > "Frank The Tank" <spam@austin.rr.com> wrote in message > news:%DArg.23687$Bh.6500@tornado.texas.rr.com... > >>"Diezmon" <notmyrealemail@fakeemail.com> wrote in message >>news:_9SdnQCYQu1GKTPZnZ2dnUVZ_sadnZ2d@comcast.co m... >>:I was googling the groups as of late, trying to figure out how to get my >>: fender flares black again.
