    Yes Joe- that's the stuff. It's purple and (you'll look foolish attempting to confirm this next part).... it smells like grape soda.
    Wipe on...use clean rag to wipe off..and keep the "applicator rag" handy for touch ups.

    I have found this product to be absolutely the best. No running after rain ,stays on forever after car washes and revitalizes the cladding. I just glop it on and smooth it out a bit with a soft cloth.
    Here's the link to Auto Glym.

    Max, there are several products for bumpers/plastic. Which one do you use?

    BTW, I tried Meguires grape jelly and I found a couple things I didnt like. One was that stuff attracts dust like crazy. Another, was I had to apply and check and double-check that it was on evenly. Since so many loved Meguires I wanted to try it out. It does look great when you finally get it on - and it lasts pretty well. But I'll stick with my Zainos.

    I used Mothers Back to Black on my 99 Amigo and it looks pretty good.
    I found Maguires Endurance in Big Lots for $ 2.00 a bottle.
    I bought some to try.

    im a maguires fan, smell like grapes after im done, and a little tip here, not sure ive seen anywhere else, but i use those tire wipe sponge things. they have a curved surface for product, and a "handle" made of some stiffer foam. makes spreading product easier,and evenly, has nice "points" that can get into that 1/4" gap between the body panel, and cladding......dreamy....and they are cheap! inital product spreading takes about 15 min.

    that is all

    Hi Guys....sorry about that.

    I use the Bumper Care.

    It takes a bit of work, but all scratches and any marks are rapidly hidden and the entire cladding looks new. It's water resistance is great too.
    Good luck.
    Max.

    I just treated my cladding today with Turtle Wax ICE. It's not as thick as Endurance so it goes on easier, and doesn't attract the dust. My cladding isn't as weathered as most so I don't need much to make mine look like new.
