Restore Black Trim The Right Way (Won't Wash Off)

Restoring trim can get frustrating, especially if you're constantly using products from your local auto store.

Those products are dressings that wash off. Our product is different. ExoForma Black Plastic and Trim Restorer uses dyes to naturally bring the trim back to a rich black color. Since it uses dyes, it won't wash off. It permanently dyes the trim. On a garage kept vehicle, it can last forever. If the vehicle is outside all day, the rich black look will last you 6 months to a year.

For really faded trim, apply 2 coats back to back.

That's an expensive bottle of shoe polish chaps. 4 years since I used silicone shoe polish for black leather. Still as black as Eppsteins conscience 💙

Trim restoration is maybe the most satisfying car care ritual next to sparkling clear windows. Thanks

ANY plastic restoring product will look like this immediately after application. You need to show it after 3 or 4 months for your claims to be credible...

I have a jeep cherokee that I have owned for 18 years. Had really faded black plastic fender trim and bumper corners. Around 2005 in the recesses of an internet forum I found a post that was quite convincing regarding a trim restore product. Long story short 300, 000km, 18 years later all outside that plastic still looks great after one application. It was a thick clear oily liqiud in a spray bottle. Spray on a rag, apply, wipe off excess, let dry, do it again. You think I can remember the name? Nope. Not that it would matter because if they were still in business it would be a household name. Wouldn't doubt if one of the other companies bought them out and shut it down. Trim products that last like this one would be bad for business.

Gow about car manufacrors atop making cheap black trim?

I need to see it 5 years down the road. Like my headlight restorer. I've used a half dozen over the period of 3 years. All failed, until I used 2-part clearcoat. 3 years have passed and the lights are clear

How does this product compare against "Lithium Plastic Trim Restoration Kit"? They said that their product lasts for 250 washes guaranteed. However, their product costs $40. I just want to buy the best product without having to reapply every time. thanks.

yeah that looks new to me...try that product on something faded.

[sky]

most products will achieve such look, what matters is for how long.

What if you get some on the paint and windshield?

Any product or best way to kind of mask, hide or make not so visible a couple of small light scratches on new matte black plastic car trim? The scratches are on the inside side of my right side mirror. The scratches appear as small white lines when in sunlight. Can't see then much when in shade. The car has only 800 miles and I have to look at the scratches every time I look out the side mirror. Painful on a brand new car. If they were somewhere else it wouldn't be as annoying. Not sure how it happened. I wash the car by hand. I was hoping it was just dirt but it's not. Doesn't wipe off. I didn't find any rocks or glass stuck in my sponges or wash mitt but buying new ones anyways. Not worth replacing the mirror. Just want to make it less noticeable. Would any of the typical back to black products help on new black matte trim or just make it worse?

lol hell that bumper looked great before you applied the snake oil on there

Hi, I have a ram Promaster that has a dark gray plastic. Can this product be used to restore and also darken the plastic trim? Thanks for any info.

[smartassist]

It has a “dye” content. What other inert ingredients does it have? I have a 2008 motorcycle (kept inside) but ridden often. All black with some black plastic components. Very particular about what oil, filters, fluid brands, parts, cleaning agents, even stay ahead of recommended servicing parameters.

So, please answer promptly. Same care for my 2006 Honda Accord, and yes my 31yr old tractor mower. “Care” is everything.

[AdrianeSoares-yj]

Can it be used for car seat? Also where did you buy your bench?

[CHRISTOPHER]

Not an accurate representation in my opinion. That bumper plastic looks brand new. Find a bumper that is used and really faded, then i will believe it.

Kiwi black shoe polish stays on over a year.

It's a crummy commercial? With ads? C'mon guys, let's be upfront and honest with your potential customers.

I have a black seadoo spark which is plastic and it has gotten faded exactly like the bumper you just used this product on. Would it be fine to use on my spark?
