Try a product made specifically for trims. Tire dressing just doesn't do it. A product I recommend is Poorboy's Trim Restorer. Not a lot of shine, but more a natural look.

With out being there phisically seing it, it looks really good. Didn't it freak you out when you saw paint on your pads? Well sounds like you were expecting this though, atleast you are aware of what you have.

Well the pictures look really good, nice and wet...I wonder how it would have looked with the XMT glaze and a coat of Pinnacle Signature Series II Carnauba Paste Wax? Well I guess you could always try later. Well done.

I was expecting that to happen so it didn't scare me but I just stopped using the OC And kept going, I was going to glaze it but it took me too long so i decided to leave it like that, For my next order I'm getting the paste wax only for My car or Special ones. It came up Ok. But if a turn on The Power of 1000 Watts Halogen that I used you're able to see the worst scratches and swirls that i couldn't get rid off, but I can live with that.

From the pic, I don't think it needs a paint job. That red is hot! Need a little dressing on the trim! Nice job!
