What do you use to clean the exterior rubber/vinyl on your car?

Any recommendations?

Cheers

I have put this on the forum a couple of times previously, here we go again: http://www.carcareonline.com/

Also http://www.meguiars.co.uk/

Meguiars were doing a demo of their rubber vinyl cleaner at Walton Hall last Sunday.

I like Meguiars products, I have been using them for some years now.
 
Ok maybe I should have been a bit more specific!

What do you use that you can get locally. I have a lot of general cleaning stuff I got from carcaronline...

P21S, One Grand Wax, 3M Hand Glaze, Lexol Leather cleaning products etc.. but I didnt get any vinyl/rubber cleaning products.

I dont want to order from cco for just one product as I' ll have to wait a few weeks and the shipping and tax make it expensive. I want to get something quick and local. is there anything that people recommend that you can get from your local car shop or even halfords (god forbid)!

Its fine recommending products from cco (and any feedback is appreciated) but many of their recommended products are difficult to find in the UK. The only one of the ones I mentioned above I can find is the One Grand Wax.

Cheers

Just checked the Meguiar' s web site and there is a store locator.

Nearest is 2 mins from me.

Meguiars #40 Vinyl & Rubber Conditioner sounds like the one I need. Has anyone else tried it?

Anyone know where you can get ' One Grand' products ie Exterior Rubber & Vinyl Dressing,
in the UK?

Thanks Ken

It should be available at your local Motor Factors (such as Brown Brothers)
 
Thanks Mark...

This is where I got my Blitz Wax (recommended by carcaronline) from.

They only list the following....

Blitz Wax - Recommended by CCO
Omega Glaze - Recommended by CCO
Chrome Polish - Fine for chrome
Plastic Polish and Contitioner - Fine for plastic
Do it all protectant - Not mentioned for use on rubber by CCO

I' ll have to ring them and see if they stock the full range

Thanks again

Andy

Hi Andy,
Have just done all of my trim with #40.
Remember the date we will see how long it lasts.[8|]

Thanks Mark for another useful site that you have just given us, I have filed it in my favourites.

Cheers
 
Zymol Tyre is good. If you get it on any paintwork then it just wipes off easily without leaving greasy smears.
Premier Bodyshops in Luton are a Zymol dealer and their prices are competitive.
