Black trim problem
Black trim problem
Hello guys I am about to buy a Meguiars G110 and M105/M205 and some other stuff. But taking a look at my car for different things to fix I found this. well I knew about it but now since I am going to polish my car I want to fix it.
This looks a crap load worse in camera then in person. Seems who ever polished/waxed it before did a craptastic job.
I have been reading and people say Forever Black Bumper And Trim Kit works the best for stuff like this. What do you guys think or recommend to fix this other then replacing it.
Thanks

Vinyl is only semi- porous, since it cannot readily absorb a dressing or protection; the products remain vulnerable to the elements. Water- based polymer products however, form a molecular bond and provide a longer lasting matte finish, similar to the OEM. Solvent-based dressings have more shine, they will permeate the surface due to its solvent content, but can be removed with detergents and pressure washers. Vinyl and rubber restoration products contain dyes that can stain the paint surface, so they should be removed before they are allowed to dry.
Trim-A-Shield - a water-based acrylic polymer formula that forms a molecular bond to vinyl and textured plastic, when dry, it forms a tough, resilient coating that remains flexible. When it cross-links (polymerizes) it forms a very dense, smooth surface that is air tight and water proof. It also resists common environmental hazards such as UV damage, dirt, grease and oil, the space between the surface and the coating is eliminated.
