Some of you guys are likely already familiar with "Eastwood's Rubber, Plastic & Vinyl Restore", but I just used it for the first time recently, and I gotta say it's really good stuff.

It brought the almost sixty year old weather stripping of my car's sidelights back to life after years of them being shrunken and inflexible. I couldn't find reproduction weather stripping for the sidelights, so I'm happy that after several applications and working-in of this product, the old weather stripping is in MUCH better shape.

I also used it to restore some old, "over the hump" floor mats, and they now look brand new, without being too slippery for use.

Anyway, thought this might be of use to folks needing to restore rubber/plastic/vinyl.

I would go with this, 7 ounces for 20$ vs 6 of the eastwood for 20$

This Einszett stuff is the best.

I ordered the Eastwood product online. It was pricey, but when they say a tiny bit goes a long way, they sure weren't kidding.
