HI All,
Down in GA, first post. I've presently got a 2015 Evoque. Could someone suggest a good polish/cleaner to keep all the unpainted exterior plastic components looking new?

Don't like the armor all as it's too greasy and doesn't look good. I did use a protectant some years ago I think was called One Grand Protectant.

Looking for any ideas.
Thanks!
Chris
 
Have you tried using the search function? There are a great deal of threads about body molding protection.

One that is most highly spoken of is Cquartz DLux.

Happy detailing!
 
I did actually but couldn't figure out a good search string so typed in body plastic and got about a bazillion hits......

I recommend Wolfgang Exterior Trim Sealant and CarPro PEARL

The reason I recommend both is because it seems from experience plastics can be different and it's a material that's always changing. Sometimes CarPro PEARL works great and sometimes Wolfgang ETS works great but you can't or won't know unless you have both to test out.


One thing for sure... if you want to keep the plastic trim looking new then head the words of this old detailing quotation....


"Find something you like and use it often"


Most people let the plastic trim go till it's so ugly they have to do something and then they start looking for a miracle product. The true answer and the correct approach is RIGHT NOW while the trim looks good find something you like and start using it and always use it and your plastic trim will always look new.

Hopefully you find a product you like. This is definitely the place to get answers!

I didn't see an introduction thread for you, so I'll welcome you here.

Welcome to the forum! I'm in GA, too. Oh, and I love the Evoque. Awesome vehicle.
