I posted this over in the convertible section but figured it belonged here just as well.

As anybody who owns one knows, the sun wreaks havoc on the horizontal portions of the panels in the back of our convertibles. I have tried armor all, silicone and any number of miracles in a bottle. I was just about to the point of shooting them with some dye but somebody told me about using a heat gun to revitalize them and get rid of that oxidation. All can say is, 'wow'. It works.

I apologize in advance for the crappy phone video.

I had to go out and buy a new heat gun because my 20 year old gun didn't get hot enough any more. But almost immediately I could see it working its magic. I kept it moving back and forth like I was spray painting and it looks great.

Odd thing is, shortly after I did it, I could see the "stripes" where it wasn't even and was going to hit it again later but after a day I can't see those stripes anymore and it looks even better now.
