Cleaning the plastic trims and bumpers!

[msanta]

What is the best product in the market to clean the plastic trims and the bumpers? I use Armor All and every time it rains I see lots of water streaks, lines and marks all over. I don't know what to use!

Toyota includes a notice in most owner's manuals that says do not use any products with SILICONE in them on the interior of your car, like Armor All. I hate that junk and it is too damn greasy! Any professional detailer will tell you right quick about how stupid using Armor All is...

The below products will give you a nice cleaning and shine but no grease!

Interior
Vinylex

Exterior
Griot's Vinyl, Rubber and Tire Dressing

Next time I wash the truck, I was going to try 303 Aerospace Protectant. Until now, I've been using Meguiar's Clean Shine and Protect inside, but it's no longer made and I'm about to run out.

This stuff is really good! I love it...Thanks for your advice, I bought three bottles, I was looking for the gallon but couldn't find it!

Where is the best place to find Vinylex? I am not having any luck finding it in the Indianapolis area at any of the car part stores.

I found mine at the dealer, but I imagine you can order it online at lots of places. Just do a google for it.

Does NXT Protectant include the SILICONE in it? :dunno: I will check its desciption tonight. I use it recently. I does darken my interior. after applying it, I give it a quick pass with my MicroFiber Tower. It holds up color for quite a long time. Have anyone else tried it before? If yes, what is your result?

 

[sutton61]

I did find it online, I just hate to pay the $4.95 for the shipping.

If you have a Pep Boys near you, they might have it. I've seen it there.

 

[sutton61]

Thanks, I did call PEP Boys and they told me they didn't have it. I am going to check back with them in a week or so. Thanks again.

i use aerospace 303 on the bumpers and cladding ... works really well and keeps 'em clean for a long while.

just ... word to the wise:

if you use the aerospace 303 stuff after washing/waxing your truck, be sure not to spray it on because the spray will get it all over your newly washed/waxed paint and leave oily residue that doesn't wipe off so easily from the paint. instead, just spray it on a cloth or something, and apply it that way.
