Non-silicon friendly cleaner? That's a pain. Good for you with the weather though, hope it keeps up! Still way too cold here, though next week is supposed to be warmer. Don't think we'll be out before April at the very earliest.

The 303 only cleaned it. Didn't shine. I just tried the Zaino tire dressing and it put a little shine. Says to put on another coat for more shine (for tires). I am still on a quest

Bob, do you remember what you used that affected the surface? Would be good to know what to avoid. Sorry the 303 didn't help.

Just did a search on the web and found this:

http://www.silishine.com/

That might help. It looks like a UK company but there may be local distributors. If it helps, I have family over there that could get some and send it over.

Looks like they're looking for distributors - maybe Adam's could hook up with them!

I think it was Zepp Cleaner and Degreaser. Not sure but I think that was it. I emailed Silishine and asked about shipping, etc. If it doesn't work out I will probably let you know and have you relatives send a couple of cans over. The quest continues..............

I'm sure you have probably already tried armor all, but I thought I would mention it. It has always worked good for my samco duct...

Thanks for the suggestion. I did try Armor-All but still no shine. Everything that I have tried separates and turns to water base. The silicone is non-porus so nothing can sink in. I have ordered the Silshine that Dave K. found. The only place to get it is in the UK. There are no distributors here in the US. Maybe Limey could take on the line??
