Faded Bumpers/trim

^ I got the Bondo Restore at Walmart.

Thanks, I was at Walmart yesterday to get some household items, didn't think of checking the auto section.

I picked it up at Pep Boys. They should be able to git it for you. It was in the section with all the body work stuff! It still looks good on 'Tiva!:blob6:

I used "Restore Black" when I first got my car last summer. It's held up great so far, much easier than painting too.

Back to Black works for me !!!

Looks great!

Went to Walmart. They didn't have it. Also went to Pep Boys, Auto Zone, and Advanced Auto Parts, no one even heard of it, even though their web sites said they carried it.Advanced Auto Parts even showed they had it in stock. Went online, found out that Ace Hardware in New York sells it but wanted 6.00 to ship. Drove to a local Ace Hardware to see if they had it. They didn't. Clerk was great. He said he could order it for me and did. I will pick it up Thursday. (tomorrow). With tax I paid 13.90 for a 8 ounce bottle.I think i should have ordered 2 bottles, but because of the price I didn't. Will 1 bottle be enough to do both bumpers?

^ One bottle is plenty. I did one coat on each bumper and still have half a bottle.

Yes it will do two bumpers and a lot more, probably 3 pair but heck use it on anything Black Plastic.

I had to use 2 coats on rear & 3 on front bumper. I also did side & back hatch trim& door handles. Still have about half a bottle. My bumpers were very faded.

Well, here we go again. Went to pick up my bumper restore(see post 21) and only half of the store order came in. Guess what? My order didn't come in. They said the rest of their order will be coming on the next truck and will be in Monday. ( 5-23-11) Man I can't catch a break. If anyone is willing to buy it where they live, and would be willing to ship it to me let me know. I will pay you for the purchase and shipping of course. Just let me know what the total cost to ship it to 08083. (Unless it's illegal somehow) Hopefully it won't cost to much more than what I have to pay for it here, if I ever get it. I already paid for it and it cost me 13.90. If they don't have it Monday I going to get my money back. I'm getting desperate!

Thanks, Rich

I don't think you can buy that in Jersey without a state permit.:dontknow: May have to smuggle it in from New York1ops: JK!!

[getnpsi]

while you are waiting hit it with a heat gun.

[jamesmc]

For what it's worth, I live in South Jersey and I got it at Autozone. No one there had heard of it either, but it was next to the touchup paints.

[kumalaba]

Hey catch me up on this heat gun process, what does it do for the bumper.
