    Re: How restore deep satin black between cab windows ?

    i tried WETS on similar window trim and it didn't ruin anything, but it was a weird streaky oily look to it.

    That's kind of how the 303 AP looks that I need to remove and try something else. BTW saw your location....... "Rochester NY" was my home town many years ago (Webster). I hear the bay and lake are at very high levels.

    I'm currently in webster, but grew up in Ontario. And yeah the flooding is bad, yet again. Canada and America need to get their sh!t together!

    let me know if you find a good product, the type of material that my pillars are leaves me a little scared to do anything but wipe something on.

    Re: How restore deep satin black between cab windows ?

    Well I tried a test spot with D166 since that's what I had, and voila! I wound up using a 4" LC orange CCS pad on a Flex 3401. Two sets of 6 section passes each at speed 4, and it looks about 95% new. I'll stop there as I don't know how durable the material is on these door pillars. Tomorrow I'll top it with Sonax PNS.

    Thanks so much for all of the helpful suggestions

    Test spot (the dull gray under the test spot is where the tape removed the 303)

    After D166

    Pad after 2 sets of 6 section passes on drivers side only. I'll change to a new pad for the passengers side. (This ought to be fun to clean)
