Had some spare time on my hands (!) and managed to complete the job of fitting the two door finishers. Thanks for the images, could not have done the job without the pictures.
Looks like new👍

Do you use these products on the roof rails and window rubbers etc.....? Some of the car specific ‘back to black’ only last a short time.

Hi John.
Yes i first make sure the car is clean & dry always best to use these products on an overcast but warm day, i start with the shoe scuff go over all the black areas steady moving the bottle at a time.

I let that dry off then i go over it with the shoe wax polish one section at a time, after 5 minutes i lightly buff the area up just like you would doing your shoes.

I used it on both my Fl1 & FL2

Default Changing front door waist rail finisher on Rover 75

Hi all,
I found this post from Steve1966 which seems to correspond to what we are looking for but all photos are unavailable and I must admit it would be of great help with photos.

We have purchased a new waist rail finisher from Rimmers to replace the original one damaged by vandals who tried to open my Rover 75 while we were on vacation. They did not manage though... ;-)

Can anyone help us? We do not want to damage anything.
