I wish you would do more stuff like this. Love the DIY content. Not a fan of the negative news reviews you've been doing. Much prefer the light harted fun videos.
This stuff is very good, and it lasts, over six months and no signs of fading yet. Top Tip Black plastic absorbs heat, if the weather is even slightly sunny, be careful. DO NOT leave this for the recommended 10 to 20 minutes before wiping off, maybe a minute, but in warm weather it goes tacky VERY quickly. Paint on, wait for a minute, wipe off. Otherwise you'll regret it. But it is a great prosuct, and it seems to keep working and getting darker over a day or so after application. The trim on my car was jet black today, much darker than it was yeaterday. Dont get it on anything that isnt plastic! I tried some on a cotton bud to see what it would to some scuffs on my door card. I can confirm that if you carefully paint only the scuffed area, it takes about 95% of the marks away.
Reckon that Plastic trims are by their nature made from Petrochemicals and degrade in the UV a bit like that supposed Glass in your Car headlights going Milky, as they degrade, obviously over time the more it does its job as you repeat this operation more it takes in until it's semi saturated, so by then it could hold up for a serious amount of time... I used to use Baby Oil on the bumpers and on the dash and on hard plastic components on the seat moulding that had become tired... Great Review....
Another excellent cleaning product is white diamond metal polish, Best metal polish I've ever bought seems expensive but a little goes a long way A lot of truckers use it for their chrome wheels/exhaust stacks etc. Not tried it myself yet but cherry blossom liquid shoe polish works well on black trim, Plenty of vids on RUclips.
Love vids like this
Practical test/reviews
Thank you
That looks brill! You could do a nice job with that stuff on the plastics under the bonnet too.

These are real reviews thanks you
Thank you
Good to hear cam! Summer beer garden with the kiwi anytime soon Dave?!
owatrol gear is the best stuff around as a decorator use their products on exterior work all the time
Скільки днів тримається ефект?
About 6
Omg this popped up,he’s still at it 😂
Need to tell how long it lasts bvm
About 6 weeks or so. Not sure in winter months
If I remember correctly wd40 also does the same job but doesn't last as long
basically oil. if you want a proper product use gtechniq c4 trim restorer. youll get 2 years from 1 application
👍👍
Blow torch brings it back to new. Reactivates the polymers. Lasts a year at least. Go steady
But we don't want that too close to the paintwork.
👍
Does the job, all good then.
🖌Riiiight folks🖌
Will it work on my hair😂
It still impresses me how many song lyrics you know 😂 👏
I know words but not in the right order
Is Ginge impressed or doesn't she give a monkeys ...
I’ve ended up with Gingers car Sid, she’s got my newer better one. Anything for a quiet life. I don’t mind as long as she’s happy.
