FS: [ebay] sp20 steering wheel - Page 3

twilightprotege · 12-04-2005, 07:41 PM

i just wish they still made the low-sheen amourall. i dont like the shiny stuff

oh and dont get amourall near fabric. it eats away at it (ie stitching on the steering wheel). anyway, you should never put this stuff on anything you touch while driving as it makes it slippery.

buy the wheel!

tehy still do make the low sheen stuff...i've seen it a few times lately...it was just called another name.....buy toughseal...much better....no greasinesss....www.toughseal.com

platypus · 12-04-2005, 11:05 PM

my god, you should ask for sponsorship from tough seal.... your as bad as me and unifilter.....

there is the plastic conditioners from meguiars etc....

woofy · 13-04-2005, 12:44 PM

nah its only cause noone listens...they complain and don't do anything about it....most frustrating

arden · 13-04-2005, 12:53 PM

the meguiars vinyl or interior spray or wotver its called is low sheen.
Does the job.

twilightprotege · 13-04-2005, 01:20 PM

i like meguiars. will try that stoof

arden · 13-04-2005, 02:45 PM

yeh my bro decided to use that armorall crap while i was o.s, whole dash was shiny for a few weeks!was nasty when the sun would reflect off it!!!!!!!!!!

platypus · 13-04-2005, 07:31 PM

geez, i've never had a high gloss problem with mine

Cosmo Dude · 13-04-2005, 07:55 PM

If you want to use Armourall on a surface and don't want the sheen then wipe it down with a damp (clean) rag after application.
If you want some fun then Armourall someones motorbike seat

platypus · 13-04-2005, 11:34 PM

why the seat? wouldn't it be more effective to amorall their riding gloves, suit, jacket........

Rupewrecht · 14-04-2005, 11:17 AM

i know someone that tyreblacked his rear motorbike tyre...

needless to say he fell off

skippy · 14-04-2005, 12:14 PM

Someone in my apartment block used some tyre black stuff,

Me thinks it was a little old fashioned more like paint

Was a week ago and there are still four werid little black shapes on the ground.

And yeah whats this stuff do to motorcycle tyres, just reduced grip?

chicaboo · 17-04-2005, 01:06 PM

I bought it, fingers crossed!

Cosmo Dude · 17-04-2005, 04:14 PM

Had a collegue many years ago (when motorcycle tyres came wrapped in wax paper) had a rear tyre replaced. The tyre shop warned him to take it really easy but on the way out it started to slip from under him

He gunned it and left in spectacular fashion

Oh yeah James,

woot woot to gav!

I'm thinking of some interior paint schemes to make a more unique SP18 identity aswell. Possibly painting the centre console surround in a polished black? I will be staying away from the silver and copper colours found on the Shades and SP20. I wanted carbon fibre, but I'm buggered if I can find a kit for a right hand drive car...

you need to get it coated by modicoat or the dashboard centre(.com.au i think)

platypus · 18-04-2005, 10:42 PM

the only thing different in a RHD v a LHD is the front wondow control isn't it?

chicaboo · 18-04-2005, 10:54 PM

No, there is also the area around the airvent closest to the ignition switch.
Doesn't matter, they've told me they offer RHD drive dash kits in any case...
