I think it's parrafin - 50%, don't quote me on that tho lol And I won't go into the environmental implications...;)

Aerospace 303 is one of the best products for making your engine plastics look like new, spray it on leave it for as long as you can ( 12 hours if possible) then wipe any resedue off. It takes no effort, and lots of people coment on how my engine looks like new.

VK you have pm

If you havent got 303 and want to do it quickly i have used the poundland tyre dressing which comes in a black spray bottle. Seems to last about 2 to 3 months before dulling off. Dont use full on silicone stuff as it atracts the dirt oin the air and look awful after a week or so!!
