Does anyone know what might bring up the colour of my rubber shock gaitors on my Suzuki TS50? the 10 years has taken its toll on the colour and has made then a really faded yellow colour, t-cut doesnt work and neither does polish WD40 etc etc, anyone got any tips? :confused:

little trick of the trade we use is a hot air gun matey, if any bumpers etc have badly faded we use a hot air gun on it very lightly and it restores some of the colour back however make sure you dont heat up the same part too quick or too much at once as it will melt, then you use some dressing we use plastic and vinyl dressing but wd40 or tyre shine etc will do near enough the same thing. hope this helps mate any more info needed give me a shout

New ones must be the easiest and by far the most practical solution
