I've been using black shoe polish, i find that normal polish leaves white bits in the imperfections of the resin

little bit of T-cut works a treat

[Scotty]

can say dont use wax

or a light coloured wax at least as all the slight holes in the laquer will leave specks of wax behind that you cant buff off

If it's originally laquered like the side panels then a bit of T cut will freshen things up. After that I usually wipe it down with either Back To Black silicon spray or GT85
