At the car wash that i go to the vending machine sells this stuff called Black Jack. Comes in a sache with a golve and a little sponge. Its a gel substance and costs $2. Does the whole care and if you use the right amount on each part and dont spill any you can do ALL the trim on a mk2 and tires with 60 profile. The stuff lasts about 3 washes and wont come off for months, the more you use it the longer it lasts, its been about my 4th use of it and my 7th wash and its still there, starting to faid now but still there.

Goood shiiiz

Thread Resurrection!

About a week ago after moving house I found some of that Kiwi shoe polish...put away in a dusty box after I bought school shoes that never needed polishing

Decided to use some on the bumpers. I tell you what, you'll need some time to apply it to something like my early VR. Lots of bumper to cover. I think I would have used about half a bottle max, and from memory they're 3.99 in my Woolies store!

After a week, including one high-pressure wash, three raining nights and lots of dew, I'm very surprised to find absolutely no signs of streaking, nor any noticeable fade.
Moral to my rant - I recommend Kiwi shoe polish!

How does one go about applying this Kiwi Shoe polish?

I assume it's just on a cloth, then wipe...?

I used a old foam pad. I suppose anything works but tooth brushes..nasty streaks.
