Hi all

First weekend with the car back, so I got a bit of stuff done!

Bought some Armor All Custom Shield (same product as plastiDip, but works out cheaper in Australia) with the intention of fixing up my grill, so today I did just that:

You can see how it's covered in little silver chips where the paint's been knocked off.

I didn't quite get the masking tape peeled off around the edges perfectly, but it looked heaps better. If I were to do it again, I wouldn't have masked up the sides, and run a sharp knife between where the chrome meets the plastic, and just peeled it off.

I decided to try it out on this door sill as well, to cover up where it had rubbed away.

Think it did a good job of that. Wonder if I could use it to fix that rubber moulding? laugh.gif

and then I found 5 bucks!
