Products Reviewed (10)
Cerakote
Ceramic Trim Coat
$17.00
Best Overall - Ceramic coating that 'ran circles around the competition, finishing in first place in every category'. Practically indestructible through all torture tests including degreaser. Best dust resistance and easiest to clean. 200 wash guarantee. High gloss finish.
Hybrid Solutions
Graphene Acrylic Trim Restore
$16.00
Best UV protection at 32% less UV than control (1,272 microwatts). Average finish of 3.3. Less glossy than Cerakote with more natural matte finish. Good performance but doesn't last as long as Cerakote.
Mother's
Back to Black
$11.00
Second place in durability test with rating of 2.5. Good hydrophobic qualities and water beading. Major weakness is being 'a real magnet for dirt' and 'held on to quite a bit more dirt' even after rinsing.
Car Guys
Plastic Restorer
$18.00
Nice dark finish that 'really looks nice'. Good initial appearance but struggled with durability tests. Gathered quite a bit of dust compared to top performers.
Adams
Black Trim Restore
$22.00
Nice looking finish, not as glossy as 3D. Feels 'a little bit sticky'. Requires masking off painted areas and wearing gloves due to staining. Takes 6 hours to fully cure.
ExoForma
Black Trim Restore
$25.00
Produced 'a very nice and natural looking finish. It's not too matte and is not too glossy. It seems just perfect.' However, 'really collects the dust' and held onto dirt strongly.
3D
Trim Care
$20.00
Pretty inconsistent appearance, 'more glossy in some areas than others'. Collected more dirt than most competitors. Good hydrophobic qualities initially but didn't last through torture tests.
Meguiar's
Ultimate Black
$10.00
Cheapest option at 83 cents per ounce. 'Does look quite a bit better than the untreated plastic, but it doesn't look very consistent or glossy.' Poor UV protection and durability.
Chemical Guys
Silk Shine
$22.00
Claims dry to touch finish with no oily residue. 'Looks pretty inconsistent' and 'doesn't have good hydrophobic qualities'. Struggled badly in durability tests.
303
Aerospace Protectant
$22.00
Aerospace protectant that's 'not designed to restore faded plastic trim'. 'Just does not look very consistent' and performed poorly in most tests. Better at dirt release than some competitors.
