Cleaning Plastic Trim

I got the Gtechniq Trim restorer, was told to use methylated spirits to clean the trim; Would Vodka do?

Just use some wet wipes,then drink the Vodka!!

Be interested to see if this stuff really does as the video shows.Might clear up cloudy carbon fibre.

I tried it on the Window Surrounds/air box/door rubbers/ 50% of the scuttle guard, they look wet now. Will let you know if it lasts

I need to do the rest of the scuttle guard, nightmare to get it clean and I reckon a paint brush is my best bet to get the C4 between the grooves.

pics of before and after mate interested if the works

What would be a good alternate option if this doesn't work? I need something to clean up the plastic trim on the sills as they look scruffy.

The C4 trim restorer is very good. Meguiars APC would be good to clean them off before applying. You will most likely need a brush to do all parts of the supra scuttle panel

I think a Brush is the way to go alright, I tried the pads supplied but very difficult to get between the grooves

I just have to be careful, I only have 15ml but it is suppose to do the scuttle panel 2-3 times over

Will see what I can do

Would a stiff toothbrush do the job for getting into the grooves?

realy interested for around the side windows

I used it on them, they have a wet now. I want to check if they still look wet after 24hrs so will take a look tonight. But it did bring them up nicely,I also did the rubber items near the door latch

It is not so much applying it , its trying to get the trim in as New condition(absolutly zero dirt) Once you put this stuff on it bonds to the plastic, if you have any dirt on it it will get sealed in

Anybody have any tips on how to get the SuperResin Polish out from between the grooves on the window frame

get some before and after pics mate, im also very interested in this for the miles of faded plastic trim on the GF's focus.

Solution of APC and a detailing brush should do the trick...

This Gtechniq is amazing BTW...

Just had a quick look at the window trim, looks like the stuff is coming off. It rained today, 10-15 hrs after application. where the small beads of water rested, you can see the outline on the window frame.(looks like it has peeled off)

I cleaned it with Alcohol , will get it up to Ians and do it indoors with the steam cleaner or see what he has. I will see what the autoglym engine degreaser has in it.
