I’m not really one for “as seen on TV” type products but WatchJRGo told me this was “the only stuff that actually works” for fixing faded plastic trim and... it seems he was right. I’m not sure what mechanism this stuff works by but it does great. Next month I’ll do a follow-up video to show how well it’s holding up to being parked in direct sun light every day.

Interesting, I’d be very curious how this compares to the best product I’ve used for faded plastic , McGuire’s Black Magic Plastic R estorer.

I’ll have to try is out on my Jeep. I tried the Aerospace 303 stuff and it only lasted one summer.

And here’s the name of the product and a place where you can find it.

Personally I use Gtechniq T1 Tyres & Trim.
Used it on an eight year old BMW X3 which had loads of bear plastic.
After.
Even modern Minis have a lot of plastics here and there.
Though a bit of patience is needed and plenty of brushes, applicators and cloths for applying and buffing off all the nooks and crannies.
Or use Gtechniq C4 Permanent Trim Restorer (lasts up to two years, but maintained will last longer I’ve found).
If you have left over Gtechniq C1+ or C5 Wheel Armour, this will do the same job as they are the same product (though C1+ has a quicker curing time than the old C1 which was identical to C4 and C5 ).

If this hold up I might pick some up for the mini, the back to black I'm using only lasts a week

When has JohnRoss ever steered anybody wrong? He’s just a straight shooter with upper management written all over him.
