Sharpie Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 I want to cover up/remove some water type stains on the underside of my bonnet on the heat/insulation covering. I don't want to use anything that will stop this material from doing it's job or cause a mess (drip) onto the engine when it get's hot or even be flammable! I just want to restore a nice matt black look. Here is the area in question - You can see the white water marks each side of the vent: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelG Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 A little hard to tell from the pic mate, but it looks very unlikely to be something that you can just touch up without making it look worse / totally different. Is it a plastic insulation ? Or is it like a metallic type sheeting ? If its under the bonnet i would just leave it for risk of making it worse.....nobody sees under there much anyways mate. I cant think of anything here at the business that i could offer you to try, but have you tried just normal car polish ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Michael, It's the underbonnet sound proofing stuff. It's like coarse felt. My car has the same problem, due to the UK scoop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpie Posted July 18, 2005 Author Share Posted July 18, 2005 It's like coarse felt. Yes, it is I could just try some back to black "coloured" type stuff with a cloth but, don't really want to fluff it. Maybe someone on here has already done it ?
