Plastic Moulding - Cleaning & Restoring to Full Black ...
What does everyone use on the J11 body black trim on lower parts of the vehicle; so many product and tricks such as Teak Oil - polishes and back-to-black products. What do you guy's use?
Thanks..

Been useing back-to-black spray on all plastic trim. Never found a good spray to remove the white wax marks that you get on trim sometimes 🙁 babywipes are good for cleaning dash etc inside car

As Andy mentioned I have been using the “Mothers” Back to Black for years. Originally it was just a white liquid (left) used with a cloth and then I found it had been released in the US as a Clear Spray (right), Spray on walk away, they say so I now use that much better. The middle one from Car Plan “Black Trim Wax” is Black and very messy, not used anymore - Dave 😊

Autoglym bumper and trim is good.

Dark green liquid, works well and does also remove any previous white wax Mark's.

CarPro PERL is a fantastic product, can be used at different dilutions for different applications.

Plastic
Engine
Rubber
Leather

Can be used on interior and exterior plastics, leather seats, steering wheel and trim.

It's fantastic on tyres and leaves a lovely natural sheen.
