Been needing to see a video like this. Was tired of using "trim restoring" products only to be annoyed by how long it doesn't last, and whenever it rained the product would smear and leave an ugly oil trail. Thank you sir as a fellow Tennessean.
Thank you for this video that has permeated my brain. The porous info makes sense. I love that you did a side by side. THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!
So far that’s the best results on trim restore I’ve seen. Most products make the plastic shinny but the fade it still there. The back to black products continue to bleed into the paint near by when doing polishing on white paints is annoying. I’m gonna try this product for sure.
I bought the big bottle of Solution Finish Black Trim Restorer for about $50 or so. You really need very little so I still have lots, it will last me 20 years for sure. I'll do it twice a year. I cleaned the rubber, not nearly as well as in the video, but still pretty good. Dabbed a bit of it onto a terri-cotton cloth in it, and rubbed it along the rubber once. It works pretty much instantly and then buffed it off with a dry cloth. It looks fabulous. You can do a whole car with about five dabs. Its super easy to apply and to clean up. It wipes off metal with no problems. I didn't really need to do it again but I did anyway because I have so much of it. I store the car during the winter so I don't know how it would handle a Toronto winter. It's worth it if your car is.
Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for!
Love the 80's casio calculator watch man
I was commenting just to say the same thing!! Good video though
I've already known about this product, but haven't used it yet. You are the first I've seen not tape around all. And the first to wipe immediately, with no wait. I hope anyone who watches this understands......... finding that out made this video so amazing! Even if you already are aware, but about to try the product. Thanks man.
Yes well the guy in the video did it wrong you should wait at least 2 minutes before wiping it because you need to give it time to impregnate itself into the plastic pores. I know you can't spray alcohol over it afterwards notice how we didn't show you the rag after he was done wiping it with alcohol after you applied the product. It's like the blind leading the blind when I see videos like this
What they call it and how to buy it
That Back Stuff works well too.
I wish I had seen this video back when I had a Wrangler. Good job.
Thank you for this tip. Seems fairly easy to do. I appreciate it!
Thanks for explaining because.. I never understood why the restoration liquids/wipes wasn't working so now I understand I need the black restoring paint first then the other stuff to maintain it.
Amazing! Great vid as usual
I used this stuff. I cleaned very well and allowed it to dry thoroughly before applying. I applied it and let it in the garage for two days to cure. The trim was back to grey before pulling out of the garage.
Thanks I've been looking for this forever 😊
Awesome video again Luke. I use solution finish too and I agree with all the points you made. Good stuff.
Been watching your videos for year's, enjoyed the shot of your junk area😊
Great info brother I’m new on trying to keep my personal car up to clean and good looking standards 👌🏽
Awesome video! Going to look into this👍✊
Thank you so much for this video!
Greetings from Ghana, west Africa Dr. Luke Wilson....Your video's are so Insightful and Detailed....Would love to see you review the highly Acclaimed 'Lithium Trim Serum' and also make a video on how to restore scratched 'Glossy' car interior plastics......Maximum Respect!!!
Thank you ! I tried it, did the prep and application according to directions, it lasted 3 washes and one month.
Lol wow really ??? He lost me when he said he gets a small kick back from his link
@@codyfrancis4474 not to mention this video was useless as he did not follow the proper procedure for applying and removing, if you do you'll get 6 months out of it if you top it with a ceramic coating and allowing it to dry before applying ceramic coating you will get upwards of 3 years out of it
@@willsrestorations what ceramic coating would you recommend?
@@theyloveashley22 Gtechniq Crystal serum light
Great video Luke. I had this on my list to purchase. My trim on both my vehicles are starting to fade and I'm glad you made a video on. Reinforcing my need to order. I will use your link. Thank you.
I do agree. Best restorer out there. A true restorer. My wifes cousins xterra trim was severely aged (it was a light gray in color) and her husband struggled with a restorer. I applied SF on the trim and she was amazed on the contrasting results but she was even more amazed on the ease of application and how “clean” the end result ended. I was even blown away as the trim was the worst trim I have ever applied SF to. 👍🏻
How long does it last as in when did it start fading back to grey
@@shaneshane9419 last a good few months...expect to apply twice a year.
Thanks for sharing!
What sold me is that you did it on an old CRV. Which is what I have. There is so much black plastic trim on that car. It's a huge part of the whole look. And if it's gray, it just stands out. I was going to replace the bumpers, but I'll try this first. Much cheaper.
Thanks for showing us how Solution Finish - Black Plastic & Vinyl Trim Restorer works
When the outside black trim is restored on a vehicle, that vehicle looks new. It looks good. New again.
I've watched so many videos on this subject and I think I have found what I was looking for. I've been convinced that there MUST be a way to dye plastic. Thank you!
Too funny i too watched many videos on this topic... I found 5 years ago that using natural peanut butter oil from the top of the jar ...which you can purchase pretty much at any dollar store ... cheap small jar for a buck or 2 ...do not stir the peanut butter...use the oil from the top of the jar...just a little dab works great ...might have to redo it once or twice a year... a little dab goes far... save your bucks... the rest of this crap is exactly that crap... when you're done with the oil on top of the jar you can always eat the rest of you choose!!!
@@sasksunseekers5699 I actually bought some and it has held up pretty damn good! Better than any other commercial product that I've tried. Applied on May 6th. So just over 3 months and it is at about 60% of the original luster. What I didn't like was the mess. My favorite thing is that after it's applied it looks more natural and doesn't have that artificial "shiny" effect. I'm curious about the peanut oil though. What's different with your method and just using peanut oil out of a bottle? I've had limited success with linseed oil too.
This is not a die or an ink you should never call it that it is a carbon-based product
That intro threw me for a loop. I drive the same CRV and have a big scrape on the panel you intro with that I'll be working on/restoring tomorrow.
Awesome video awesome product definitely buying ASAP
Ordered ! Thanks for the video.
Ride Along how’s that work ?
Alejandro Flores actually pretty good. Would suggest for heavily faded plastic. The other trim restore products work just fine if not to bad as is. This will bring it back to life then can maintain with other sprays
Ride Along Thanks so. Much is this Olson work for door handle ?
Valet pro - black to the future, brilliant stuff
Nice product. Great Vid, thanks
Thank you for the info! Great presentation!
Did you use the same stuff on your eyebrows?
😂 bro chill
😂
😂😂
You are just f***ing hilarious bro... Peed my pants...😂😂😂😂
😂 new product pitch for “just for men”.
Great video Luke!! Totally Diggin The Casio Watch!!
Great video👍🏻
Great! Thank You!
good tips nice finish on trim
Thanks!👊🏽
Great advise! What product can I use to protect and enhance the exhaust cover and winglets on my Ducati Panigale V4? Thanks
He did take his sunglasses off. I think your video was very informative and good. I will buy the product via your link. Thank you for your knowledge.
Hello, this is the 2nd time watching this video. I have a question on rock chips on black mouldings which after a while the area appears almost grey. I am on my 7th Jeep products since 2014, the mouldings behind the rear passenger doors receive the most abrasions along with a rough feel to the fingers. I use CG VPR ( as per your video on VPR) on the trim on my wife' Jeep Cherokee Elite since she's always busy. On my Jeep Cherokee Elite I use Griot's Black Shine since I can allow 24-48 hr's for cure time. Short of bringing my wifes car to a Collision Shop to buff out, what would be your suggestion to restore and advoid additional abrasions to this area on the car. Thank you.
How long does it lasts before you have to do it again?
Either smooth or textured works for me
I have used this product on my Toyota FJ Cruiser and it might not last forever but its the best one i have used so far, and i have used many.
That small bottle goes a long way, i have done my Toyota FJ cruisers trim two times and i think i can probably do it one more time.
I have used the product and your advice about use a little at a time. My 1st time my so called little covered the whole job.
How has it held up?
@@evanwojtowicz2379 The solution makes anywhere you put it looks shine new. Like any product you use Low trim or high traffic steps it dulls the shine but still a new look. My next service I want to do is large
entire bumpers or large wheel wells.
I always listen to the pro's. You're a pro. I have a 2002 Ford Escape. A lot of black trim. I used Mcquires Black last time. Like you said it takes a lot of time to complete it all and make it look back to factory. The Mcquires handled the rain and sun of Florida for a month maybe two. I am going to go with your dye next. Thanks for teaching me something and have a good day.
God Bless you and your family.
I know this is the wrong video to put this on but I have been using the dog hair removal tool you recommended and it is a life saver thank you
Question I need to ask...How long does it last? All finishes make black trim look better-great at first application but how is it long term? Weeks/ Months? or longer? Also living in a hot dry climate how does it stand up to rain, snow & such? I like dyes much better than dressings, one coating I don't like which a lot of people do like is CeraKote but it leaves a gloss finish like the trim has been painted gloss black. I use Forever Black (it's a dye too) but there's one drawback which is it sticks to whatever it touches (don't get it on your paint!) but it lasts for me a year +.
Would it then be good to put some trim protectant on top of the Solution finish? Just wondering how to make it last as long as possible, or maybe when (if needed) to do the process over. Thanks for a good video.
Solution Finish has made me *so* much money. Dozens of vehicles, thousands of dollars. I paid around $25 for a 12oz bottle years ago. I have not even used half of the bottle. 👍👌✌
It's a freaking money maker if you have black plastic trim completely around your car such as like a Jeep I charge 400 dollars and I top it with a ceramic coating so it lasts for years
@@willsrestorations yeah! Jeeps, Land Cruisers, Avalanches especially. What do you top it with? I use TAC Moonlight. It’s another of my can’t live without it products. Cheap, easy and durable.
@@jdisdetermined I'm a certified installer for Gtechniq, so I use the Gtechniq EXO V4. I do a bunch of these and I warrant him for 18 months, but they last almost 3 years. Too many so-called ceramic coatings on the market and most of them are just a gimmick and somewhat trash. Just like Adam's graphene ceramic, which is the biggest fraud perpetrated on detailers that I've ever seen because graphene scientifically cannot be applied across a painted surface. But Adams graphene will tell you they have done it and then nothing but shit ass liars.
i Iike these kinds of videos
Rain streaks are a leading complaint with restorers. Does this product streak after rain or wash off after carwashes? Im sure alcohol wash test is one thing but washing and rain is another. Thanks for your response!
I have the exact Honda and was looking to fix thr exact issue. Thankyou!
When this product starts to wear out can you apply over existing areas that appear to be in good shape?
Hey Luke keep up gd work and stay awesum
I can hear Darren voice coming through you lol great dude thumbs up
GREAT!! Love it!! Bought some!! As a side question, whatever happened to you using "Extra Tough?" I bought it when you recommended it and love it, but I don't see it in your list of products. Any reason? Thanks.
Great video can i applied a trim coating after use this?
Love your videos, hope you’ll look at Rustoleum wipe new as well.
I started using and still use solution finish on occasion from Luke’s video on it in the past. What I found , it fails over a relatively short period reverting to the original full oxide finish hence I had to continue to use. ( Admittedly that might be because I had to wash or rinse my car off daily as I drive it professionally) Rustolrum wipe new actually dissolves the oxide surface and restores it. On my BMW X3 I used it once and never again! I sold it about year later and never touched it besides washes.
That sounds great. Thanks for sharing.
Idk if they changed the formula, but wipe new absolutely destroyed my black trim. The first time we used it it worked perfect, we bought more a couple weeks ago and now my trim looks like ashy garbage
@@mikki3274 I still use solution finish on some jobs but have moved on to Cerakote for more high end jobs. Many of my ceramic jobs have plastic that can restored with its application. I can’t get the Rustoleum product shipped to Maui and no one stocked it here, it’s been almost 2 years now, just shortly after that post. Saying that it did wonders on my old BMW X3.
good video luke
What’s an acceptable UV dressing after treating flares with this stuff??
What do you add to seal the restoration?
awesome...You think 1 bottle can do 2 bumpers and 2 running boards?
What do you recommend for the black rubber around the windows that you said this product wouldn’t work for
It looks great for sure. Is it wise to then put a protectant over it?
If you do it in sections and overlap a section you’ve already done, can you tell? Does it cause high and low spots?
Just ordered this using your link. I just applied to my Challenger trim and so far it looks brand new! I sent your link to my neighbor that was impressed with the results as well.
hows it held up?
Yo I love that product!!!!!!! 😱 I'm going to look into it and buy!! 👍👍
Just bought this last week, can’t wait to try it
Could this also be used to treat faded exposed weather stripping?
Hey, whats the name of the dye that you are using?
Would be nice if you had a follow up video lets say six months later.
See my recent comment.
Can’t because the next day it was probably looking splotchy and fading. I tried that exact product on my well-kept 01 Dodge Ram. There is no “true restoration” that can be done to faded black plastic. Try watching a couple videos on using boiled linseed oil.
Once saw a video where some used car dealer would restore the trim with Rustoleum spray paint. Cleaned the trim, a coat of adhesion promoter, and a few light coats of Rustoleum. Looked like a champ. I tried it on an old 2001 4Runner front grill and came out nice. Though that vehicle he was working in sure does have a lot of trim. There’s also trim paint, thought I’d use the Rustoleum.
@@lulop022882 I finally tried Krylon satin black. That looks like new. Now we’ll see how long it lasts.
You gotta use 303 trim protection it works so good. Put multiple coats until it doesn't fade away and I'll last a while. Apply every 2 washes or so and itll last forever
Have you tried the Adams black trim restoration
Any product such as this one that would work with interior plastic black trim pieces? Thanks!
How long does this last? Should something be put on top of this afterwards as a ‘protectant’? What do you recommend for non porous surfaces like the exterior trim around windows?
Obviously this guy doesn't respond to questions as his process was as bad as useless as it tits on a bull. After you apply this and it has covered well you may notice you need to apply another coat if so do that 4 hours after your first coat and then top it with Gtechniq EVO V4, desirably to coats and this will last for years just remember to give a final wipe down after allowing solution finish to cure for at least 12 hours and then wipe it down before you apply your top coat ceramic.
You can apply Ceramic Coating on top of it :D
Great video!
Might want to update your link✨
Will try this out ✅
Nashville! I’m in Murfreesboro.. Nice element 😎
Can you clear vinyl wrap this after is dry? Wrap will oxidize over the years instead of the stain, which who knows how long that takes to be sun affected. ceramic coating can be long lasting, but can it, or a stain be reapplied?
I used back to black. Does that need to be removed somehow before using this
This is all fun and great but the best plastic restorer I ever used was a heat gun. Harbor fright special of $9.99, set it on low and slowly move around the plastic it does take some time but it is restored forever, of course i do follow up with chemical guys VRP and it looks amazing, you could use the restoration product since the pores are open on the plastic from the heat and then once it cools the product seeps deep into the plastic
Will this work on brown trim too.My chevy E quinox has brown trim.
I'm hoping to do bumper trim and side trim on my car. Would 1oz be enough?
Looks like Luke isn't reading comments. So, as someone who has used this product: it lasts pretty well for a good 6 months outside in Midwest weather. You can let it cure for 5 hours and retreat if the black is not dark enough and even enough.
The next application in 6 or so months will require even less effort and will not take more than one coating.
Recently, the company has released a topper for SF (wait untill it cures) called "Over the Top Plastic Sealer." In this country, Rag Company has an exclusive contact for the Sealer. It's supposed to add 3 months to the life expectancy, and you can reapply SF over the Sealer when the trim finally fades. You can top off more than once and so extend the time before reapplying SF.
Note: I haven't used the Sealer yet. It's on order.
PS: I don't know how anyone would have rain removing this, unless you did a really terrible job preparing the plastic. SF says to use 70% alcohol or higher. This targets silicone, which has often been applied. It's important to use a strong enough solution.
I notice his bottle is white. But the one on his link is black. Also saw a white bottle that looks like his. Which one should I get man ?
Good stuff!! On a side note I lost that watch in 1976. Where’d you find it? Hmmmmm.
take them sunglasses off when you're talking to me so I can tell if I can trust you or not.
Haha I like your style .
🤣😂😂🤣
You can't trust him because he applied this wrong
Those sunglasses!
In addition to my comment below, I forgot to ask... is this a good process/product for those plastic rain gutter like strips on the R & L top of the car roof? They start to get like faded spots.
Thanks bro
I love that solution! I bought last time you recommended and it did wonders on my 2008 Sienna.
how long it last untill it get gray again?
Nice!
Do you have any experience with "Car Guy's Plastic Restorer"? Been thinking about picking it up on Amazon... Now I'm not sure if this may be better?
what solution have you used on your eyebrows?
Would like to see what it looks like after 30/60/90 days? Cheap not always better if it won’t last or hold up outside in day to day conditions yes?
Can this use for door handle ?
Great video Luke. Do you recommend this product for interior plastic trim?
Want an answer please
Can trim restorer work to blacken up grills?
Can you use this on the interior trim? If not what would be a got restore product for interior black trim?
Nice, good presentation - factual to the point!
couldn't figure out product link?
