Title: T-Cut Colour Restorer
Post by: Swivel on April 24, 2009, 09:23 AM

Anyone used this on faded tuffs yet? I'm tempted to have a go with my red alloy hubbed ones to brighten them up. I ain't got time at the mo to dye them, but just wondered if anyone has used any colour restorers before?

Cheers,

Matt  :daumenhoch:

Cif, scouring pad and then WD40 would do a better job.  I did try Meguiars colour restorer on my Z-Rim but it hardly made any difference.

Any chance I could have a quick step by step for this?

Will deffo get some of that red colour restorer now. Mine are in the process of being rubbed down, will complete those in the week, then soak in wd40 then t-cut a few times.... they are quite red anyway but I reckon they will come up a treat now :D
