I had a black gold 182 a few years ago and sold it to get something sensible. Missed it ever since. Bought this RB a couple of weeks ago

Funny how people will wax and polish their cars paintwork but ignore headlight plastic until it clouds over... (being lazy in the car cleaning area I had dealer applied paint protection and every time it rains it cleans the car, the only bit I have ever cleaned regularly is the headlights - and it seems to work). I did a family members car with Fenwicks caravan window cream and it removed the cloudiness very well with just a cotton cloth and the cream.
The AutoGlym super resin polish is also great for keeping UPVC ( or PCV-U ) window frames in great shape, just once a year is all it needs.

Good tips there. I'm going to try to keep on top of it and maintain the finish with regular light hand polishing.
