Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Just to clear something up, we didn't spray it on.

    We soak a cloth with the spray & then rub it into the seal. Doesn't leave the seal shiny either.

    But each to there own.

    What ever work's for you I suppose.

    This worked for us & got the warranty claim's down too!

    Like I said about the using the Gummi-Pflege is that it is greasy & attract's dirt & dust. It's not crap & is good stuff ,but it still has it's uses though for other thing's.

    Nothing worse than getting into your car wearing nice clean clothe's & then scuffing the seal & wearing a black, greasy smear to go along with it!

      Tried the Meguiars today, definately made it blacker, and looks water repelant. As to whether it penetrates???

        I tested this product. Its just a dressing. It sits on the surface and it ran horribly in the rain. On my white car i had streaks down the paint where i used it. Durability was about a week when there was no rain
