My door handle restore

this is what I used for the process ...
and this is the RESULT !
it doesn't look 100% perfect but it is much better than before.

Great results. 
Just curious how long it lasts.

I've found some polishes that make it look pretty good for a couple of weeks ... but invariably back to white!

Looks good!
A product called showroom new works fantastic on the plastic pieces too. it's a true dye, so it wont fade/wear off for a couple of years. I dye all my cars with it, and it's dirt cheap too.

I got this from a auto paint supply store. Looks great and will last a long time. I used it for the door handles and the trim around the targa top,
But I agree, Mohammed's job turned out nice and I too love that color
No close up pics. This is the best I have:

Nice , so you painted the handles ? I guess it looked like new
I dont have much experience with paints , but what's the use of yellow and red cans ?

It has been on about a year now with no problems.
And man oh man - that GS looks sweet!
