DSYKES5500 22 Posted March 7, 2020 Hi all, My C pillar badges are very faded, using plastic trim products makes them look better but they still look faded. I've seen people online using the heatgun trick to bring the oils in the plastic back to the surface but I've also seen comments that contradict this method saying that it can leave the plastic brittle. Could I use this method once and then keep them protected with product? I've also found decals to go over the lettering, has anyone done this to theirs? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SRDT 148 Posted March 7, 2020 The decals should be used on blank trims, on yours they may or may not not line up perfectly. As for the heat gun the red paint may not like it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wallby 39 Posted March 10, 2020 Have you tried the Wurth plastic trim dye? That works really well and lasts quite a long time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pugdamo 111 2 Cars Posted March 10, 2020 I second that wurth trim dye, I did mine before I put my decals on about 3 years ago and it still looks good. It's about £30 a tube though I think but it is good stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
