I used this back in February after seeing so many great reviews on RUclips etc.
I've washed my car with Turtle Max to the max to strip down old waxes etc. Then totally awesome APC. Nothing has touched Cerakote.
My last wash Saturday morning July 16, 2022 was my 30th plus this year since using Cerakote in my 2010 Kia Optima LX and still no signs of loosing appearance, but this week after washing again then using my prep spray on all my trim areas I will be applying Cerakote again.
I know 200 washes but I like it so much I figured what can it hurt to reapply it every 3 or 4 months just for upkeep. Just hope for a cool Texas morning to get 'er done 👍🇺🇸 HOOAH 🇺🇸🔥
Every 3-4 months the trim will look perfect all the time year round. It’s low cost also so why not. 👍
@@LKN4WAR yea seriously this stuff is great for a diyer
Phil, I highly recommend solution finish. The stuff lasts a couple years and I tried it on my dad's Sierra and it holds up very well. Highly recommend.
I use solution finish also
Great stuff lasts a long time
Used it also on my vinyl shutters brought them back to new.
Same brand?
Solution finish is garbage.
been using this for a few years now myself absolutely love it still over all other products
yeah its a great product for sure. What I like most is that you do not need to apply it to a separate applicator and risk the bottle going bad over time. these packets last long and are super easy to keep on hand without fear of expiration.
@@autofanaticcarsCan I use white spirit to prepare the trim as we can't get the product you use here.
I used these on a bunch of older vehicles with faded plastic trim (after cleaning and prepping with IPA) and they worked wonders. Great product!
Thanks for sharing great product overall and value.
If I had a new car, I would not even bother, not till I noticed some fading. My Volvo is an 05. I need this
How long does it last ?
It’s refreshing to see a more budget friendly option beat out the competitors.
exactly many companies make and sell ceramic trim products that cost 4 times the amount.
I’m a detailer and offer this product install, glad to be able to get it so cheap
I did this to my truck 2 weeks ago its a 2010 f150 super crew the bed rails and bumper step pad were almost light grey after applying cerakote it looks new again. I found the trick is to not let the wipe get to dry and the gloves make the pads slippery to grip will have to see how long it last but happy with the end results if you miss a spot it is easy to see to do a touch up
Works WAY better than I would have expected on my 19 yr old GMC Canyon's terrible looking bumper trim. Degreased areas fully, then lightly rubbed-in worse areas & coated passenger side of bumper heavily to allow whatever soaking in it might need. Waited 24 hrs, then went over previously wiped areas again to detail. Dried to an even & nice medium shine. Will complete the other side of bumper when I'm ready. But for now, I like to show interested people what this awesome product can do.....
Great video and followed exactly and both my cars came out great especially my wife’s 08 CRV. Have before and after pics
It’s harder to completely wash and bone dry!! Definitely works
Use this on my qx50 2 yrs ago. And it still looks fresh. Great product
Just applied this yesterday to my truck. 👌🏼
Been using it for 2 yrs absolutely love it
thanks for sharing your feedback I also have been for 2 years when I did my friends JK Wrangler and it still looks great
@@autofanaticcarsCan I use white spirit to prepare the trim as we can't get the product you use here.
. Been thinking about getting some cerakote. Thanks for the prep tips
prep is the absolute key, spend the time to do it through and it will ensure the coating bonds and lasts. I did my friends Jeep two years ago and it still looks great.
Just used it on my 2020 ram classic amazing results. Was mostly impressed how it worked on my mud flaps!
thanks for sharing our Stelvio trim looks exactly like this video and it is almost a year later.
I just used " wipe new " on my cars outer mirrors , dash , door panels , seats , grill , etc. High gloss almost 2 k level , good reviews across many u tubers who have tested it . Ceracoat suppose to be very good also
Been on my rams trim well over 3 years now!
and you have very high UV and heat, great to hear
@@autofanaticcars yes extreme uv index here, plus 1 year on powder coated items too... Just don't over lap much so you don't get a shiny spot. Good stuff.
Really a great product for best results. You can't go wrong with Ceracoat Trim coats.
Yup great review, I include this on my full details now. Excellent value.
yes it truly is an amazing value
I like it alot to but it can leave streaks on larger surfaces and solution finish doesn't clog the pores and can also be coated on top too so that's my go to for now. I did like Cerakote though.
Absolutely awesome results. I will be applying this to my 2004 Nissan Titan tomorrow morning. Thanks for the informative/how to video.
Glad it helped follow my steps my trim still looks the same as i did in this video and it is almost a year since
Do not i repeat do not get this on paint or glass and let dry it is hell getting it off
Ordering some I hate doing the trim
let us know how you like it once you try it out
Entertaining, informative and well done video. You always are spot on no matter the video. Thanx.👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it FYI our Stelvio trim looks amazing still like the day I applied it months ago in this video, prep is key to proper long term results. Love this stuff.
Used this product ! Nice finish & Very easy to use . But it doesn’t last 200 washes! Max 6 to 7 washes . But again for the price it’s a good value .
sounds like you did not prepare the plastics properly if you only got 6-7 washes, the preparation takes the most time for this product.
@@autofanaticcarsany reason you can’t use alcohol as a cleaning prep?
Yeah Phil that stuff works pretty well I’m going to see how long it last on the Subaru versus the Gyeon .
prep prep prep and report back on your results. I did my friends Jeep JK two years ago when everyone was home and it still looks great and those wide fenders look horrible from oxidation quick. He just washes with our Auto Fanatic 007 Snow Storm soap and dries using our 007 Ceramic Detailer and it looks fresh as it did two years ago.
@@autofanaticcars Totally agree with you on the prep which I get lazy on first time I used the Gyeon prep on the plastic like you did I thought I discolored the black plastic on my Subaru but I’m glad to see that you’ve come into the same situation as I thought I ruined the plastic with an alcohol-based cleaner but the stuff also has orange oil in the ingredients and I just love the smell of that prep lol.
You don't think its overkill to use prep solvent, then gyeon panel prep prior to cerakote? Cause directions say use dawn dish soap in water, wash plastic part. Make sure its bone dry and the. Apply cerakote trim
Nope read comments people who did mediocre prep had bad results my car laster for years until we sold it
Just used on a 2011 Avalanche, one thing to remember is this product is intended for textured plastic not smooth plastic. Can't give a long-term review but it looks great so far.
If you prepared the plastic like I did we got over 2 years and left our SUV outside through 4 seasons it looked perfect up until we sold it for a new one few months back
Just bought this Avalanche vehicle, if you know the plastic shroud behind the cab fadesto dull grey and this product brought it back to black so I am very pleased. I did call the manufacturer to verify this product was compatible before applying. Negative reviews were either poor prep or incapable plastic. Doing a total renovation of this vehice, next step is under body rust removal and reforming with por 15 and fluid film.
Very interesting. Thanks. 👍 It looks like the “Cerakote Trimcoat” is no longer available though; I can only find the trim restorer. 🤷🏻♂️
It has been renamed... exact same product
I'm trying to decide between Lithium trim pads or these. Reviews I've read about both products are very good. Just don't which one to get. Hell me Phil.
order the Cerakote all others may be cheaper knock offs.
@@autofanaticcars Thanks Phil kinda what I thought. I'll give it a whirl.
@@autofanaticcars 1/2 mineral oil & 1/2 baby oil works just as good and last just as long, plus it’s cheaper
I love Cerakote because it lasts longer and is less expensive than Lithium and other products. Although the Lithium Trim Cubes are a great way to apply. I’ve also seen great results from Wipe New - very similar to Cerakote but made by Rustoleum. Both solid brands.
Thanks for sharing!
Wipe new ruined my trucks trim!!!
Thank you for this video after watching im going to buy the Cerokote trim. I have this week off from work so im going to do my Nissan rogue . How many wipes did you end up using ??
I have the trim coating and finish coming on Thursday, looking forward to seeing the results.
BTW, is there a name to the song at the end of the video? Siri didn't seem to recognize it.
Can this product be used in sunlight?
I have a 2017 hyundai tucson with jus slight fading can i use this product..i hear ots not good for newer trim ..it is 7 years old tho
Good review. How is the trim coating holding up (in terms of maintaining the black color of the trim), after many months?
the trim looks as if the day we did the application still, amazing product i can not highly recommend it and for the money it is an absolute bargain. but remember and follow my prep steps in this video this is obviously why my results have been so good so far people do poor prep then complain on the results the prep is the most important step of everything.
Ceratrim from The Last Coat is great as well!
Phil, have you tried their glass coating kit? Price seems attractive and their products do perform.
i have only tried their headlight kit and trim coat but we use all of NIC Industries powders and high temp coatings and they are a really solid brand all around
Kit is ok not great
Do you think this would work well on a Can Am Ryker? About half of my 2022 Ryker (hood, sides, rear fender, etc.) are all porous trim grade black plastic. Thank you!
absolutely
I used this but I like malco epic revive better
Should I use a product like this on my new car before it gets Uv damage over time?
yes
@@autofanaticcarsyou didn’t show doing the front grille. How do those wipes working getting in all those spaces in the grille? Seems spray would work better in a honeycomb type grille?
Very thorough explanation.my wifes 2005 jeep has tan/ sage fender trim.is this product for black trim only if so another recomendation?
you should not have any issues to use this on your wife Jeep as long as it is a plastic textured surface it should work wonders regardless of color.
@@autofanaticcars thankyou.ordered off amazon.
when you try it please let us all know how it worked on your Jeep
@@autofanaticcars will do.
Is this treatment for a new car or an older car?
Any car
I have yet to find a trim coat that will hold up after a rain. Nothing but streaks. Have you tested after a rain hits it..thks..jc
This lasted over a year through rain and two winters follow my exact preparation process youll get great results
@@autofanaticcars Ok. Thks very much..jc
Apply it in direct sun so it can dry prematurely and start smearing
None of that occurred in this video sorry
Have you tried applying white vaselin ? It worked in the 80's 👍🏻👍🏼👍🏽👍🏾👍🏿
Is this the same as Griots garage trim coat?
most likely Griots markets their kit by Cerakote so it might be the same chemistry but not 100%. There are many brands selling these under their own branding today we might even consider it if the option presented itself.
@@autofanaticcars just asking because I used and its pretty damn good. Plenty of wipes and over saturated, ended with 2 coats
yeah you get great yield from the wipes if you prep well and do not contaminate them with dirt they go a long way. how has your trim been holding up so far?
@@autofanaticcars almost 1 year, Trims looks shiny like candy. For the price I cant complain, later on the road im gonna try their headlights treatment
Overkill for sure,but well worth the effort. Thanks for all the tips. How does it look after a year?
Looks flawless like in this video still through two winters and staying outside the key to great results is the prep!
Absolutely don't use Cerakote products on your trim if the car is evenly remotely new. They won't tell you this, which is appalling, but it'll wreck trim on a new car. The off gassing will push the coating away from the surface and can't be fixed. There should be a class action lawsuit against the company, no questions asked.
no idea what happened to your car but please tell us the year make and model. We never heard this before and Cerakote is a huge company that should have addressed this in development. You may have had an issue with a new car recently due to the manufacturing shortages they are switching up many things such as vendors and suppliers of injection molded trims.
Serious?
What year do you think I can start to use this product?
What year and make was your car?
Thats why you use a trim coating not a restore trim coat as it is different in nature
Can it be used on wrap? My matte black wrap is graying
I think it will shine the matte up too much if your vinyl is of good quality a really good detailer can safely polish and almost restore the surface i have done it many times on hoods and cars with stripes but it is very tedious
Hey Phil I was going to ask you and get your thoughts on the new GR Corolla and the collectibility I think it’s going to be up there with the supra and close to the LFA collectibility not the new BMW supra…
no idea I never put Corolla into any conversation of collectibility in my life ha ha ha you never know how things are going. it looks like a neat fun car i would like to drive and review one
You think I should use this on the gt350 plastic trim?
you can just make sure you really clean the plastic trim like I show here because the plastic on the Shelby has a very greasy mold release agent from manufacturing ive found but it works outstanding and i suggest doing 2 coats, let it dry in between coats and the trim will look awesome for at least 1-2 years
Ok cool. Yea have to get ready for winter so trying to protect the car as much as I can from all the salt. Thank you!
Do you know if Cerakote works with faded door belt molding at top of door and below the glass on a 2022 Kia Forte?
Did you ever find this out? I got it for this exact reason.
i have a jeep with a canvas top, can I ceramic coat it or is there a specific product you recommend I use?
This product is not for that material . There are products for tops you need to research
@@autofanaticcars 👍 thanks and yes I know I meant a coating not this trim restorer
How can this be removed I put in on my interior trim well oneside
Call the manufacturer to ask that’s not gonna be easy
What product did you use on the tires
Our Auto Fanatic Mega Gloss Tire Gel
Just Purchased my first alfa and the previous owner did not clean the exhaust tips. You have any recommendation on how to clean and protect the exhaust tips on the stelvio. Just a video idea if you have not done one yet. Thank you
does your Stelvio have the black Nero package tips like mine? either way you can use a mild metal polish with microfiber towel i personally like the Gliptone system they offer 3 different metal polishes that work outstanding order the kit off Amazon.
Not a nero package. Basic TI with all the chrome/aluminium trim. Probably going to black out the trim pieces but keep the exhaust factory.
Thank you for the advice
I never tried using it on interior trim, but I wonder if it could be used to remove scuff marks on interior plastic trim.
I tried on the lower doors on a customers car t made the area a bit too shiny on the hard plastic,. there needs to be a solution for that because the hard plastic gets kicked on the lower door panels so easily and not much works to restore that unless you re dye the area.
@@autofanaticcars Yeah, if somebody can come up with a good solution for this issue that does not require redying, that would be a real moneymaker!
@@autofanaticcars been watching a lot of good review videos on P&S No Rub Coating for interior plastic and trim. Give it a try. Would love to see a video from you!
Would odorless mineral spirits be an appropriate substitute for the prep solvent?
do not use mineral spirits on the plastic it can leave residue and eat into the plastic itself
@autofanaticcars Plus if he were to get that on the paint, that would not be good.
It's a very good product, I just don't like it's gloss finish.
I hope they release a matte version myself
It just doesn’t look new. It looks like a poor attempted armor all application that just sticks around forever.
I think you need to wear a mic. The audio is not good.
i do wear a mic but the wind that day caused the audio to be bad and had to edited out in some areas which affected the volume.
@@autofanaticcars audio is perfect
It’s just over £50 on Amazon UK right now ($66😳). Rip-off Britain right there🤦♂️
yeah the importing and shipping from USA to UK is insane now
It's £35 still overpriced in USA you can get it under $20
Glorified armor all. Garbage.
You obviously have no clue what you’re talking about this is a permanent coating for hard plastic that lasts YEARS not days.
@@autofanaticcars i obviously do bc I just used it yesterday. I call it like it is.
