The front of my SLK looks like this:



Treating all that mesh with plastic care (I use Autoglym bumper and plastic gel) is a nightmare trying to apply it. Anyone got any top tips?

Always going to be a difficult and time consuming job wit the complexity of the cars front end.

Try using Nanolex Trim Rejuvinator or Gtechniq C4 at least that way the protection will be there for longer and need doing less frequently

I've bought this to use under the arches but have the same as you on the back of my VXR8 so will try it there too.

This is a more permanent solution, just put some on my van bumpers and it looks good. Only time will tell if its a long laster.

Use a half-inch paint brush and a one-inch paint brush to apply.
