Message: <blockquote data-quote="eohl79" data-source="post: 1064236847" data-attributes="member: 117298">There are several ways to my knowledge on how to get trims restored. Applying a product on top of it might or might not work. Depends what sort of damage the trims are in. Some have even managed to restore trims simply using a heat gun to re-melt the top plastic layer (search in Youtube). Tried that myself and is a little risky with a knack to getting it right. If plastic is flaky and brittle little that you can do.Products that I know of to restore trims:Spray on plastic trim protectants. Hides/restorer the damage to the plastic trim a little. Works if damage to plastic is minimal but doesn't last long. Tried Optimum opti-bond tire gel which works on mildly faded trims and gives it a nice black sheen but being water based it gets washed off a bit with rain/car wash. Tried Einzett plastic/rubber protectant which works well and last a little longer. There are also OTC likes: Meguiars, etc but durability is about the same.Resin based trim restorer which lasts much longer than those spray ons, can try Soft99 Black parts one. Cost  <a href="http://www.soft99.co.jp/english/products/carcare/body_coating/black_parts_one.html?pid=03134" target="_blank">BLACK PARTS ONE -Unpainted Resin Parts Refresh Kit- | Coating Agent | Exterior Car Care | Car Care Products | SOFT99 corporation</a>I've also tried Dodo Tyromania which is a wax for tire/trims. Works great but needs a knack to applying it properly without wax streaks.There are also trim coatings out there but would cost a bomb (Dodo Supernatural gloss/satin trim sealant, 22ple plastic and trim restorer, CarPro PERL, ... etc)...I would go for the Soft99 Black Parts One as it is affordable, available and lasts longer than those spray ons.</blockquote>
