DaveWirral Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I have an A4 Cabrio, there is some plastic chrome trim that is a bit milky, I have tried using white vinegar, which to be fair has done a pretty good job. Has anyone tried other methods? Would Autosol work or be too harsh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I think autosol might be a bit harsh. Brasso always did the trick for me :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveWirral Posted June 14, 2017 Author Share Posted June 14, 2017 Well i took time to look at the options, Autosol did the job, i was super gentle wiping it on,followed up with a coat of wax to seal it well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trevor Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Cooking oil also works well to brighten the plastic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McLaughlin2226 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Dave Wirral what wax did you use to seal after you'd used the Autosol? Am thinking of doing mine soon is all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
