What can I use or do to make these legs look, not necessarily new per se, but better than the very faded appearance they have after all these years. Is there some secret potion that I can apply or incantation I can chant to the spirit of Bob Dougherty that will help me along? TIA

Thanks Phil.

I have used Penetrol in the past and followed your instructions but my legs were too far gone. I decided to go the spray paint route. Pretty happy with the results.
