    What works for you when you want to clean up those black plastic fenders on your Jeep Wrangler?

    • @greeek777

      Just use crisco, put on and wipe after it sits over night. Last for over a year and looks great!

    I added something to your vid advice on Wranger plasticmobile fenders. I have a smaller rotary brush that goes in a drill. I’ve used Mother’s Back to Black before. With the brushing everywhere it sinks in and does a good job fast with the drill gun.

  • @PatHancock
    @PatHancock Před 10 měsíci +3

    Boy, Mama, I did just what you recommended with brushing and Mother's Back to Black. Wow it takes the old wax off and cleans up all the whole fender. I'm also using a rotary drill brush to speed things. Winner!

    On the plastic trim for my vehicles I use transmission fluid then after it's "dried" or penetrated the plastic I wipe on some 303 aero space for UV protection. Pretty solid

    Hey Jeep Momma! I am just like you I tried everything nothing worked! But a guy at the beach told me about Back to Black I had never done this with a brush in the way you did but will try later today. To me it’s almost shameful to ride around in a dirty Jeep Wrangler! I live in the south where you have every color mud imaginable! Thanks for the tip on using a brush!

    I was using this stuff. Now I hate it. The fenders look worse now than before after wheeling. Set in mud stains...it sucks. Every time you use this stuff it looks good a little bit, but then your fenders look a bit worse after back to black has worn off. I'm going to paint them with Duplicolor's Premium Acrylic Enamel Spray. I did my grill with this stuff and it came out awesome. I cleared it after, and it is amazing.

      try it on your rear bumper or on an inconspicuous place first. I did that before trying it on my fenders. I didnt use it on the hood locks because they are close to the paint and i wasnt sure if it would mess up the paint. you can see the difference between the unsprayed locks and the fenders.
