Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

I recently brought my C4S and none of the black trim had been looked after really so I used a can of WD40 to wipe over them, let that dry and then used some backtoblack on them and they look like new!

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 2Original post

Hi, Are they past saving? I recently brought my C4S and none of the black trim had been looked after really so I used a can of WD40 to wipe over them, let that dry and then used some backtoblack on them and they look like new! Did this to the worn and sun bleached skirts/front valance/front screen under the wipers/all around the door rubbers, in the engine bay and in the front luggage area. Works a treat and when you wash the car it looks like new again. Mine is 90k down and it looks pretty mint now. The look of all the 'black' bits makes a big difference to the car.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi thanks for checking out my post they look quite tatty on the edges will try what you said. I have also bought new front valence which had some dinks and scratches on it now looks great. It's only done 40k so was very surprised at the condition of the rubbers to the rear windows simon
