    If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular?

    I'm not sure if I'd try it on the exterior cladding since it will collect dust & the Mother's B2B still works for me.

    Im using Mothers Back to Black as well

    These pics is when i first got my Vx and the very first treatment.
    Id say my vx had green cladding since it was imported in 2001. Because on the rego details its classed as green and grey.
    Tryed in the grill made it nice and shiny but yea definitly was hard to clean the dirt out of the gaps afterwards

    Yeah, I tried the Mothers stuff and it does work, but in the long run I just found Stoner Trim Shine to be easier. You just spray it on, dab up any drips and voila!

    First I wuz gonna say: 'I have no response to that'...but that seemed like playgerizm!

    Well,,,maybe you should put us both on your ignore list.....oh wait a minute...I've heard that before...some other thread or some other topic?? (I'll have another cup of coffee and maybe it will come to me... )

    back on topic.......(and I do like the new smilies ) I've often thought about hitting the local GM (Government Motors) dealer about acquiring some of the 'Avalanche' body panel treatment to try as an experiment...one of these days...
