Trim treatment

beanie said:
I use 303 aerospace protectant on the exterior trim as it’s supposed to have good UV resistance. I’m not sure it’s a trim rejuvenator as such, but it does darken the plastics and should offer some protection against the elements.
^ used it for 9 years now. Love it. The fact that you can spray your whole engine compartment, then leave it and find fantastic results the next day suits me. Been very happy with it.
 
For ease Car Pro perl does the job https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Carpro-PERL-WATERBASED-SILICON-OXIDE-COAT-500ml/162932373129?epid=1343919138&hash=item25ef86b689:g:lr8AAOSwHuJdkG5d
though i now prefer a 50-50 blend of Meglars endurance gloss https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Meguiars-Endurance-High-Gloss-Tyre-GEL-473ml-G7516EU/402490873340?epid=17017005932&hash=item5db65355fc:g:MUoAAOSw3ftepWG~
with Autobright trim shine dressing https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tyre-Trim-Shine-Dressing-Car-Cleaning-Deep-Black-Look-Made-In-USA-Autobright/232868506245?hash=item36380b6a85:g:5p4AAOSw~~NbXzMV

too many choices :P
 
I use this on other half’s mini , wrapped in plastic trim got sick of doing it every other week so opted for more permanent solution , no complaints been on 8 month still looks good , just wipe it over now with microfibres

Also use Mr Wilks suggestion of Autobright tyre shine , Leaves a dark black satin finish rather than look like you have driven through an oil slick

I really thought there would be a couple of outright winners people use but seems there is lots of choice. I guess I'll just go with one and see! Thanks for all the suggestions.
