Jim7 Posted May 29, 2005 Report Share Posted May 29, 2005 I've got a couple of questions first I got some 3M rubing compound on the black part of the bumper and it looks lighter than the rest I've tried evenything to get it off any ideas (I guess same as wax over spray) ...and what is the difference between using a rubing compound and a clay bar????

Dylan06SS Posted May 29, 2005 Report Share Posted May 29, 2005 rubbing compound is an semi-abrasive polish... similar to an EXTREMELY fine grit sand paper... not good for a final coat. claybar is 100% non-abbrasive and will remove any surface contamination.

ArrivalBlue03 Posted May 30, 2005 Report Share Posted May 30, 2005 If you mean on the black rubber moulding, try a pencil eraser, works like a charm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1stdodge Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 If those do not remove it, as a last resort use black shoe polish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan06SS Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 If those do not remove it, as a last resort use black shoe polish. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That'll only cover it up temporarily, but that would be the easiest way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUNNER Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 I don't like mothers products, but the do make a product called "back to black" it works pretty good. It's designed for situations where you've gotten wax on the textured black plastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
