I love my AA Extreme gel and this should work with the boutiques as well, WG/DP/Pinn etc. I've been using it on trim like wiper cowls and bumpers etc, works awesome, much better then other trim products including PB Trim Restorer. What I do is just apply and let sit and soak in, then buff off with micro gently to remove whatever product is left on the top. The tire gel last even longer on trim as it doesn't see the motion and abuse that a wheel does. Water just beads right off like its been waxed and holds the fresh look even through rain. I have not noticed any "running" from the rain either.

Give a try.

I could not get PB Trim Restorer to work and last on anything, I was lucky to get a couple days out of it and others said they got months?

Haha, you know I'm just messin' with you. I think it's cool for people to post new things, different processes, etc. to help others.

I agree about the trim gels. I used C G's trim stuff and it sucked. Ran everywhere when it rained:mad:

Sounds like this stuff works well on trim too, and is pretty durable. I wonder how is it compared to Duragloss.

I bought some of this stuff and tried it about a month ago. It has major shine. It started raining the day after I applied the AA on my wifes car tires. After 2 rainy days the tires still looked good. It wasnt quite as shiny as a fresh coat, but it did still have a clean appearance.

Ford has something in their trim that likes to reject products, I tried our Ford trucks, families trucks, same thing. The tire gels work better for me on trim.
