What is a good dressing to bring the cladding back to life. Or maybe line-ex them.

how do i get the discount.Vaeagleav said:There are many many threads about cladding fade and the various techniques to restore or paint, Line-X etc. finishing of the cladding in the maintenance section of this website.
The most popular and reasonable product to apply is Refinish Restorer, just to be sure to follow the application/prep directions for best results.
This seller is a site member and used to give a discount as well:

There are also many other liquid restoration products on the market but Refinish Restorer seems to have the best results and last longer then the other products.
Line-X is more expensive and some older threads talk about having to remove the cladding first so it can wrap around the plastic and last longer. Other members have applied it without doing it and so far so good according to them.
Other members have sanded and painted their cladding with mixed results, then you have the few who have replaced the AV cladding with Cadillac EXT cladding since it's smooth and has less prep work involved. It is the most expensive way to go though since it will run anywhere from $1,200 -$2,000 in parts and painting to do it right.
