Anyone know a trick to"Brighten" up your coil springs?

Just wondering if anyone knows a trick on how to "brighten" up your front coils? After years of use, sometimes miss-use (LOL), that thick rubber or whatever the coating is, has gone from shiny fresh yellow to a dull yellow.

They have info-mercials for Nu-finish solution for your paint (literally j/j I know only way to restore paint is new paint) anyone have Nu-spring solution LOL? Without pulling them and recoating?

Any tricks to revive the color of the coating?

 

Fox recommends waxing shock bodies... I assume you could so the same to the coils.

 

Tape, paint and lots of beer

 

Probably a good decrease and clean.

 

Kinda figured, but was hoping that wasn't the case. Painting thick rubber coat never lasts more than a couple months....

Coating is at near 1/8 in thick, friend owns a oil field coating shop, charge me $50 to sand blast and coat, but removal and disassemble springs and struts is a biatch! Lol!

There not preset, coil over packs, there literally selected struts and coils assembled.

Where is that NU-Spring info-mercials when you need it, lol

 

Tried that, they are "faded" like something left in the sun too long.

 

Sounds like of your gonna rip it apart you should just bite the bullet and lift it

 

I have no idea what you're talking about

 

This entire truck has been ripped apart, even front cap swapped, I don't really want to go higher than it is. Same time I know what it would take to remove the springs and reinstall. It sucks

 

Iron Man springs? NICE!

Bill's struts?

 

1st clean w/ degreaser, then detail w/ wet majic erasers pads. Those things really are amazing, they make anything look brand new.

 

Those actually work good? Always wondered, but skeptical? Yep, I'm gonna try! Thanks bro

 

This may be the OP's best option

 

Well... At least beer is always good Think I'll try a combo approach first. Lots of beer, lots of decreaser, and washing and majic wipes.

Never thought those would work, but well worth a try if they have been successful, plus get to drink beer!



What's the worst that can happen? Have to disassemble if it doesn't work, don't have to if it works it's a win/win

Thanks guys

 

If we are talking about the MR.clean magic erasers your gonna need at least a million of them. They fall apart scrubbing dirt off my sneakers. Maybe try some scotch Brite.
