Cleaning Rubber Hoses?

Get a can of Halfords wet-look tyre dressing. Spray some onto the hoses. Then rub it off carefully with a clean rag. The rubber hoses will look OK - for now. Repeat as necessary.

Don't think of the cost, I use this on all black plastics, calipers, hoses, switchgears etc.

Mine has lasted 3 years and is about 15% used.

 

I used Vulcanet wipes to clean mine (or baby wipes) then GT85 to dress.

 

Armour All, also from Halfords.

 

Glycerol, swissol sell it under the guise of "seal feed" get it from a chemist and save paying for marketing hype.

 

I wipe over with ACF50 applied sparingly on a cloth. I've found this better than specific trim and plastic cleaner and it lasts until the next wash.

 

Thanks for reminding me. Need to get some of that for visor and pinlock seals.
