Opti-Seal on Plastic Trim

I have a quick question for those of you who use OS on plastic trim: does it create a "dressed" look when applied? It looks appealing to me as a way to protect the trim, but it would be ideal if it improved the appearance of plastic in addition to protecting it.

OS will not give you that dressed look. I've tried so many dressing and like Ultima Tire and Trim.

Just tried it on my tires and looks great. A little goes a long way.

So is it more of a sealant in terms of the way it behaves? I assume then that preparing the trim is very important to the durability of the product. How long does it last for you?
