ZL1 Lower Grill - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Been searching the forum on what to use to shine/restore the lower grill but can't really find anything. I wouldn't say mine is faded but definitely in need of some TLC. What do you guys use for this?

Mothers makes a product for the black plastics that works well.

I heard black to black gets streaky and runs when it rains

Mothers VLF also works well.

I've gotten excellent results with 303 Aerospace Protectant.

Can you get the 303 at any parts house,like O"Reillys or Auto Zone? I have never heard of it.Who makes it?

Adams VRT

I use Adam's VRT as well.

hawk02 · 01-05-2016, 04:18 PM

Adams VRT is great on tires but I find it leaves an oily residue on plastics which tends to attract dust, pollen and road grime.

O'Reilly's online store sells it. Don't know if the local stores carry it or not. I buy it from a local department store. Most marine stores carry it. The Golden Eagle website has a store locator

I like it because restores the color and protects without leaving an oily residue. I use the protectant on all the plastic parts both interior and exterior and on the leather seats excluding the alcantara. it's great stuff.
