About this deal

So this Porsche had two big dark box like trim pieces near the license plate. For my test area, I chose the one on the right side. For prepping the trim, first it got rinsless washed, then cleaned up further with CG NonSENSE apc. For application I chose a poly foam wax applicator. For this small area, I’d say I used about a dime sized drop of product, and that product could have easily covered the entire piece, it really spreads nice. The product itself has a nice creamy color and consistency, and you can tell a little goes a long way. Using peanut butter to restore faded plastic is a popular method but not necessarily the best. The oil in the peanut butter provides the restoring effects but at the same time makes a mess and produces a strong smell. a>

The most popular trim restorer on the market is the TriNova formula, which is a cheaper alternative to the Gtechniq that darkens and shines the surface. If you prefer to use a spray formula, the Torque Detail plastic restorer is the best option. It’s a 3-in-1 spray that restores, shines and protects plastic, vinyl or rubber surfaces. The brand claim that it’s the easiest trim restorer to use on the market and they aren’t wrong. The advanced formula uses true nanotechnology, which permeates plastic and provides protection for up to 6 months.

To help you make an informed buying decision, we have produced the below guide regarding trim restorers. A little goes a long way. After I treated all the trim, I probably used around half an oz of product.Once you’ve applied a plastic trim restorer, you would expect the finish to be long lasting. Although there is no truly permanent fix, many premium options can last up to 2 years or longer. Although the longer lasting restorers are more expensive, they will reduce the amount of applications required per year. Using a heat gun to heat up the trim can bring out the oils in the plastic. However, all plastics are different and only so much oil can be taken from the plastic. It would also be best to test on a hidden piece of plastic before you attempt visible areas. The best feature of the Gtechniq C4 is the fact that it permanently restores plastic trim for up to 2 years, which is far longer than the alternatives. The final option would be to simply paint the plastic trim. The plastic may be past restoring and this would be a permanent fix. Alternatively, you could plasti dip the plastic trim or even use automotive vinyl wrap to cover up any defects.
