Just wondering what people use on their exterior rubber trim. Stuff around the windows, etc... The car looks so beautiful now I just want to get into some preventative maintenace. Armor all?

 

Armor All?? Bleh.... Meguiars #40 Rubber and Vinyl Cleaner / Protectant.

 

Awesome! Thanks for the info. I agree on the armor all.

 

I wouldn't recomend Arnor All because they products tend to leave a residue behind that attracts dust and soil. I would clean the trim with a rubber/leather/vinly cleaner. Then if you really want the trim to be black use Leatheriques rubber dye http://secure.detailedimage.com/Merc...ory_Code=Vinyl. This will leave your rubber trim darker than when the car was new. I love it because the darker the trim the more it sets the color of the paint off too.

 

Thanks Punchit!

 

I second that!

 

For exterior rubber or vinyl I tend to prefer the Ziano Tire Gloss (z16 i think) it works pretty damn well. Don't use this in your interior though! Just external stuff like tires, door trim, and even in the engine compartment hoses etc.

Grab a sponge and dampen it with the z16 and work away. Works better on already clean surfaces.

 

that stuff good for the dash too?
