rubber conditioner
« on: November 06, 2008, 19:57:59 »
hi everyone, ive just came into possession of a decent pair of binoculars coated in rubber. they are in good nick but need cleaning up etc.... is there a rubber conditioner out there that will clean them  up a bit and possibly protect them a bit more?
cheers for your help.

You could try acetone to clean them (nail polish remover) , works wonders on rubber printer rollers and makes them grippy again. Then why not use some bumper restorer or even tyre wall gloss stuff that comes in a spray can.

Autoglym do a proper vinyl and rubber care or a bumper care, the later is a bit oil but both will clean and protect.

You can get a welly-boot spray, I think its silicone based, I got some for my Hunter boots that were cracked and perished.  They came up like new!
Try Hunters or Le Chameau website
