Facelift interior trim, is it painted with rubbery
« on: 27 April 2008, 20:42:26 »

Centre console, the bit for the rear passengers with vents in, a rubbery layer is peeling off, is it a polish or something from the previous owner or is it the finish?

It's on door trims, arm rest/centre consule & etc etc. A pretty dumb idea imo  >:( :(
People slate Rovers for bad trim  :-? I've never come across it before.
Mine has small scuffs on the trim in loads of little places, though you don't notice unless you look hard. Still shouldn't be there in the first place  >:( >:( >:(

Only the back of the armrest centre console is dodgy so I'll try spraying it

Not suitable for front of car usage
