Default What would you recommend using to maintain the luster
on the plastic armor cladding for the allroad? Has anyone heard that peanut oil is an option?

Default I used Maguires quick shine..
Is a hand spray, spray on wipe off.

(Not to be confused with "wax on...wax off...")

Its not glossy and looks fine.

Default I used the same stuff...
Its one of the quick shine products that you would use at a car show. Its simple and keeps the look interestingly dull, because that is the base surface...dull.

Default Zaino... Z6 is the only thing I use on it...
I don't apply the Z2 to them when I do the rest of the car, but when I finish up with the Z6 I do apply to the armor. Although I am sure Z2 or any other Zaino product won't harm the pieces.

I would stay away from WAX though...

Good Luck!
Gavin

Default I use only P21 GEPC followed by wax. NO polish or glaze, as they will make
shiney spots.
