Plastic fading on rear bumper.

[Josh]

The last few months have been a hellish mix of snow, ice, salt and sand. With the snow finally gone, and the sun rays beaming down and blessing us with their warmth, one starts to look a little bit closer at the paint and finish on their truck. So today we washed up Project Sierra and noticed that the plastic on the rear bumper was looking extremely faded. And not just a little bit, it looked really bad. I mean, is this even 'normal'??

 

 

 

 

But have no fear, our friends over at Adam's polishes sent us over some Super VRT. Just look at the difference this stuff has made!!!

SVRT= Best Product Adams Makes!

That's fantastic but strange- my 2011 still looks new (though not as nice as yours does now!) with 46,000 miles on it.

It's pretty strange. Even more so when you can see the license place light housings didn't change color at all. Adam's VRT, shockingly, made it look brand new again.

That looks great. If only my truck stayed cleaned enough...long enough...I would try the stuff. My bumper is constantly covered in who knows what, mud, gravel, pollen, kids, dogs...

Not normal, especially like Zane pointed out that the license plate light housings look like new. My rear bumper, after almost 3 years, still looks as new as day 1. How long does it take for that stuff to wash off? Is it like most tire treatments that are gone after one rain? Glad mine doesn't need anything yet.

Not soap residue or anything?? If not, wow. nice product to fix it, but shouldn't need fixing that fast lol

I'm glad you guys posted this. Mine is faded slightly, and could use some of this stuff.

Mine is getting bad, too but not that bad. Does the Super VRT leave a slippery/greasy residue?

[savillian]

Yep, mine is fading too, although not nearly that bad! Time to make an order from Adam's.

No. Just don't over apply

Applying a good protectant can help the plastic exterior from fading. I've heard that 303 product is a good one.

[cruzingcruze]

looks like great result!

[SnakeEyeSS]

Id like an update. How has the VRT held up?

I use the 303 also.
