Tops, Fender Flares and Chrome Wheels help needed

[Saxonwolf]

I just bought a used Jeep. The Rag Top is a little faded and so are the fender flares. Is there anyway I can restore them to their original color?
Also the chrome wheels have some minor pitting. Is there anything I can do to remove the pits without damaging the shine?

For the top I recommend a two step product called "RaggTop". Very easy to use with great results, it's a cleaner/protector 2 step product.

Fender flares, I assume they are black in color, a rubber or hard plastic material? If rubber then I recommend a products called GR-40. Cleans and restores these materials well. I can give you alink to where you can buy it if you like.

If they are a hard plastic material then you may be able to use a mild polish made for paint. Try something like Meguairs #9 first, a rather mild polish that is at most car stores.

As for the wheels, well if they are pitted then there isn't much you can do to remove the pits. You can use a mild chrome polish to keep them up but first make sure they are not clear coated as the chrome polish will scratch the clear.

They can be re-chromed but you won't be saving much money over buying new wheels.
