always test in an inconspicuous area!

The more and more products put on the cladding may look good for a little while... right up to when you wash your VX or get caught in the rain.

Additionally, all that's happenening is you're causing all this stuff to be "baked right in"

The way I see it, we have a few options...
** Use the dressing of your choice and just keep using that as part of your routine wash.
** If you're always going through the "rough" or doin' lots of wheelin' then I can definately see where Rhino Coating or LineX would be a good option. And NOT the store bought stuff... most people don't have all the neccessary products to truly promote good adhesion.
** Lastly, as a street machine, I will be painting my cladding with a basecoat/clearcoat system. I plan on matching the original matte finish (not sure of color yet, black, off black, dark grey) this way, I will never have to worry about fading again... The clearcoat has built-in UV protection, so I can just wash'n-go...

I'm sooo lookin' forward for this summer to be over!... Once the heat breaks, I'll be out there gettin' good 'ol Luna ready for her new look...

This is my future solution, gonna do the whole truck, use a colored "smooth" version on the metal and the black on the cladding.

I've always wondered how a vehicle would look completely covered with that material... you wouldn't have to worry about sctratches anymore!

Quick question...
Does the newer version of that stuff have better built in UV protection? I remember when the colors first came out, they looked great at first, but a couple years down the road, they would get that chaulky look. Just like cladding... you don't want to have to deal with that on the whole truck.

There was a VX in Colorado Springs that had been completely Rhinolined in black...owner was a hardcore offroader. It came up for sale last year and, while not my taste, was not bad for a rig designed to go through the harshest and toughest offroads that CO has to offer.
