Liquid black shoe polish, rub it in well and then a rub over with a wd40 applied to a rag every time you wash it. Works for me Thumbs Up

England 2005 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE Auto Java BlackDiscovery 3

I use Chemical Guys New Look Trim Gel and it is better than any other product I have tried before.

I have spent loads on detailing products and spent 6 hours cleansing, polishing, sealing and waxing last weekend. Well woth it though and the CG trim gel finished the car off lovely. Wink

United Kingdom 2007 Discovery 3 TDV6 XS Manual Zermatt SilverDiscovery 3

I had the Autosmart wagon come around to give me advice and sell me products. I brought the Highstyle dressing - works a treat. I think I got 5 litres for £15.

I'm very pleased with the stuff he sold me - I spent about £125 and got enough cleaning products for about 3 years.

I agree jkp Black Wow is really good

But you have to apply it very thin and spray some water and wipe over or goes streaky in the wet

I bought some a while ago, and love the stuff, all be it a tiny bottle for £19

United States 2005 LR3 4.0 V6 Petrol SE Auto Java BlackLR3

Do any products actually clean residual wax & polish off the plastic? Everything I've tried so far covers it up for a time but then shows through again and looks fugly.
 I'm not so good at giving advice...may I offer you a sarcastic comment instead?

Hi Tami,

Didn't you guys invent peanut butter? Whistle Laughing

If you haven't got any (and being serious for a moment), you could try and get hold of this: Poorboys Natural Look.

I bought some a few weeks ago...it's a cracking product and it seems to clean polish and sealant marks very well when I've used it...also leaves everything a nice uniform colour and isn't sticky or greasy.

I've included the link to the US site - you may find some distributors close to you.
