    Cleaning worn textured lip

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    What do people generally use to clean and bring out the black in the front lip spoiler? Mine has a relatively large white spot which I assume is caused by wax.. how do I get rid of that and just make everything black again? I used mothers back to black and it didn't help much. Any help is appreciated

    I just painted it. It took like 20 minutes.

    I used rubberized primer and sprayed some black paint on. Looks nice and wet.

    I spray mine with trim paint every time I change my oil. Don't even clean it, prep it, or primer it. Simply hit it with the trim paint.

    I also use back to black on my front and rear valences, it works great except you've gotta reapply it like once a month or they get all faded looking again. And if you accidentally get it on your paint, it leaves some gnarly smear marks
