Bumper rubber strip - aust

[260Zed]

Like many, the rubber strip on my bumper bars are well and truely trashed, the two that remain in place. I remember hearing that one of our aussie fords used the same or very similar strip that fits on our bumpers. :cheeky: Problem is I can't remember what year or model it was!

Anybody know and care to shed some light?

Cheers

G'Day Luke,

Don't know about Fords mate but I paid a visit ti the local wreckers, spent a couple of hours poking around and found some door protection strips that are almost identical. Not sure what they came off, maybe a Toyota something.

Rubber was a bit hard but a good liberal application of Arco made it nice and pliable again.

Hope that helps,

Rick.

What exactly is Arco?

ozlime240,

G'Day there Michael,

Arco is the product I use on practically ANYTHING that needs cleaning. My wife uses it on the bathroom tiles.

I mainly use it on anything that those who don't know any better would use Armourall on.:stupid: :stupid: :stupid

The upholsterer who did the work on my "Precious" advised me against using Armoral and suggested I use ARCO instead. He told me that it can only be obtained through a motor trimmer / upholsterer. Last tub I bought cost about $9.

Doesn't leave a slippery shine like Armoral but sure does clean.

By the way, don't use a rag. Rags only spread the dirt. Use a piece of foam. You can see it collecting the dirt. Sucks it up like a sponge.

Rick.

Just get new genuine stuff (while you still can!)

I recommend trying Warren at All-Z Parts here in Sydney for the best price.
