Just thourght i should let all you guys know how i solved the problem of dryed Interior door handles.
all i did is go over them with some wet'n'dry until it when't smooth, Hence it removed all the dry flaking plastic, I also did the same to the demister switch and now it looks like new. ![]() |

Maybe a couple of coats of some type of sealer to finish them off, or even a lick of paint too?
