Rear diffuser care
 
1 Attachment(s)
I've been thinking about how to maintain the rear diffuser and decided to try some Aerospace 303 to see what the result would be. It seems to actually give the black plastic a bit more depth and "blackness".

Any chance you can get a bigger picture? Can't really see it

He is talking about the black diffuser. That is stock. I use a spray that I also use to clean my interior.

Looks nice and clean. Mine is almost white right now, from all the road shit on it.

I use Mothers Back to black, that seems to work as well, doesn't make it super shiny black, but it keeps it looking oem and has a little shine.

I use the Adams Super V.R.T shine or their In & out spray

Use these on customers cars with great results!

Each of these also don't leave that greasy finish and don't attract dirt. The super v.r.t is water based.

Looks wonderful! I haven't thought about using the rubber stuff on the diffuser as it gets too dirty. I will definitely try in the summer.

It works good and it creates a layer keeping things from clinging to the plastic so washing and cleaning is much easier

Yes for 303!

Old-school product I love. Use it on all my cars and have for years. Works great on interior, leather seats and also on tires. Keeps things looking 'new', not overdone. I buy it by the gallon at the boating supply store - always goes on sale at the beginning of the boating season here.

Plastic

I use 303 on mine, and the area where the windshield wipers are, and side-mirror black plastic. It's got electrolytes, which plastics crave.

I use the Autoglym Vinyl & Rubber care for all the black plastic exterior parts and my interior. Works pretty well, doesn't give too high of a gloss and the best part is that no residue is really left on anything. Smooth and dry to touch after application and holds up for a quite a bit.
