Default slowman back in the game and he brought peanut butter

Well some of you may remember my old EF hatch that I boosted the D16A6, and then went to a white CRX with B16, to a 95 Paradise Blue Green Pearl EJ1, and now I'm on to my new project, a 1990 CRX Si. It's my favorite so far!

All faded and looking white. I remembered a post a while back about a guy using peanut butter on his wheels so I was like WTF, can't make it look any worse so I tried it. Here some pics.






Little test to see what it would do :0


Looking good


application


Half and half, got the rest done, didnt take pics though, looks all great though. I'm very pleased.









Dont really have any good photoshoots, yet. Just got back after withdrawing from UTI (Dont go there if you're thinking about it). Now I'll have time to do some stuffs to it!

Yeah I actually just used paper towel to apply it to the hood like wax, then took it off with paper towel, no special way, just get it all off. Can be a little tricky sometimes to get it off. But it's real easy. I was amazed at the difference for the little effort put into it! Very easy, quick results.

or... if you're hungry enough, you could just lick it off! Or you could use Wonder Bread aswell.

So, any old PB will work? Or do you have to use a certian brand? Is crunchy peanut out of the question?

I've known about this (old PB trick) and used it on my old CF hood and some trim on my bros EF hatch, unfortunately the results are temporary and the haze will come back. The oils from the PB are what "moisturizes" (for lack of a better word) the hood. You should get the hood recleared if you want permanent results.
