Rubystone is a flat colour not a metallic. Unfortunately it does not appear to show on the latest official "PTS availability" list:

Blues look great. Estoril and Oslo would be at the top of my list.

I've only every seen Rubystone 64's. That 7.2 RS looks awesome. I've also taken a bit of a fancy the the purple 991 GT3 RS car in the C. Harris review. nom nom nom

Great choice. Both are very nice old Skool flat blues that look great...

Ultraviolet is the RS colour in the CH video. Quite polarising by the looks of the feedback on the boards...just like ruby stone was in the day....

Thanks Warwick, don't suppose it's stocked by SCA or Repco? Will give peanut oil a try first.

Thanks all for the advice on this.

Thanks Jake. Have now installed it. I was one of the testers on the beta version so I hope they have it running well as it was pretty buggy. Macca,

Whilst on this can anyone recommend something for impact bumpers and whale tails, will peanut oil really be ok? Macca I'm assuming you've used it since last century on the 993 soft rubbers? John, what did you use on the 964 turbo?

It's uttely useless on android, it seems they have disabled the mobile site to try switch people over. I'm now running the full desktop version on my phone, if thats the finished product it doesn't really incentivise paid membership.

I agree. The design of the new app is awful. The old one was much nicer to use.

Sadly not Doug. Its a private import. I only bought in a "sample" size as its quite expensive. You are more than welcome to try it. If i'm happy with the longer term results, i.e. length of time between reapplications, i'll bring in some more.

Pel, I didn't use anything. The car was always stored in rubber friendly conditions and the tail rubber had no discolouration/deterioration.

Sure the peanut oil works to rejuvenate black rubber and plastic trim. I've found it works as well as Meguires Back To Black Although the later smells better! It's basically free though and seems to last a long time once the optimum level of nourishing and penetration has been reached. I've just realised this all sounds like a scene from Game of Thrones....
