« on: 29 August 2012, 00:55:52 »

Does anyone know how to renovated the rubberized surfaces on the door cards or a company that can do this sort of thing as mine needs going, it takes the shine of an other wise perfect interior

 :D
Same with mine and as far as I have been able to ascertain there is no proprietary spray to recoat them. Only other solutions I have had from others was to clean it off altogether and leave it a shiny black plastic. I suppose if that was done they could also be srayed with a satin black bumper paint though. They do a few colours in that type of paint too so you would have a choice.
The switches are the same, they damage easily and then have to be replaced.
That is the only fault with the interior I have found and it lets the marque down badly. The designer was a crappy one and should have been sacked!
Let me know if you find another solution  :y ;)

There are Spray Cans, Velvet Touch or Rubber Touch effect, never used it myself, but know a man who did and it didn't last 5 mins, maybe down to the prep worrk??

Ive always wondered why the stuff underneath is so smooth and shiney sort of goes against the grain for a surface that you would spray on, unless it some chemical or heat reaction at the factory.

I think there is a complete rubberised car spray finish
Theres one parked a couple of hundred yards down the road
It's black although I understand other colours are available
Needless to say I think it looks a dog
