Guest Guest_2 Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 So I have a question, what is the real color on the trim of Volvo 850, is it grey or black???? Some of you guys have it black, others dying them gray... Can someone come up with a picture of the real color of the trim??? Do they vary if the car was black, red, white, or yellow??

WayAway Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 It's ok, is cheap, and works better than anything else I tried, at least until I discovered THIS, which is a much longer lasting product. It doesn't streak the way Kiwi does either. And, they also make a gray that matches Volvo exactly. My .02¢ how many bottles did you use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaskMule Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 how many bottles did you use Less than half a bottle for all bumpers, trim and door handles. 2 applications, I let them dry about 20 minutes between coats., still lots left in the bottle. I won't be using Kiwi again, this stuff is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnloves850's Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Krylon flat black.. Cheap, easy, lasts until you hit or scratch it, but that is what rub strips are for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt b Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Do you want your bumper black or factory gray? If you want black go with KiWi if you want the volvo gray go with this It's the same product that Taskmule just linked, but in gray. And you posted it for $3 cheaper.
