[rauljimenez]

As you know I've been asking like a mad men how to tackle different jobs as I get to them lol lol. Ive been restoring my car finish since like 1 week or 2 ago and I'm almost there. Now I need to know how do you guys make miracle with the Black Trim....

I'm gonna post pics of the oxidation on the rubber and the last guy's wax which of course is me lol :nomore:but no moreeee....

So what do you guys do with it once it looks oxidized dull and white ?? is there something u can do to restore it to almost new condition??

:iagree:be sure to clean surface real well with apc. Gummi Pflege will tlast for months. For plastic trim I would recommend Ulttima tire and trim.

I cleaned all my rubber and plastic trim recently with Griot's Garage Rubber Cleaner (basically APC) and followed it up with Ultima Tire & Trim Guard. Looks fantastic!

Ive used Mothers Black-to-Black and I hated it. Never going to use it again.
Looked good at first, but wears out too quick. And on those rainy days, I would have streaks from the product running off from the rain.

I've heard nothing but good things about the Gummi Pflege, though I havent tried it.

RIght now I use PB Trim Restorer, I love it.

I use a small scrub brush and some APC. Spray the area and scrub until the surface is free of debris and contaminates then rinse with water. Dry the trim then apply Poorboy's World Trim Restorer or Meguiar's Ultimate Protectant and you'll be amazed with the results.
