Mckees37 Plastic Trim Restorer Review

[Pats300zx]

Nick over at Mckees37 was gracious enough to send over some of the new McKees37 product releases for my to try. This is my review of Mckees37 Plastic Trim Restorer. The test vehicle is my 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 which needed some much needed cleanup of winter salt, snow, and abuse. My Dodge Ram has a significant amount of plastic trim so Mckees37 Plastic Trim Restorer was the perfect product to test it on. Although my trim on my truck is pretty well maintained the Mckees37 Plastic Trim Restorer did an excellent job of restoring and bring back the trim to it's original color and look.

Application:

I applied Mckees37 Plastic Trim Restorer with a foam applicator and worked it into the plastic trim. I decided to use a foam applicator as opposed to a microfiber applicator or towel since I noticed that the microfiber was absorbing a lot of the product. My trim wasn't overly dirty so I applied without cleaning with an APC first. After working into the surface I buffed any residue with a clean microfiber towel.

Thoughts and Observations:

Mckees37 Plastic Trim Restorer did an excellent job or bring back my trim and plastic to new. The surface was not over greasy and was dry to the touch. We are expected to get several days of rain this week so I will report back if I get any streaking and how the product holds up when exposed to rain.

Nice review Pat! Trim looks brand new!

Just an update: We got a ton on rain yesterday and today I checked and found no streaking or runs at all with the McKees37 Plastic Trim Restorer. Winner !!!!

Great review! It's definitely a great addition to the arsenal. Had no streaking on my testing too.

Yes that trim does look new again! The other consideration is of course how long a product maintains that look. Curious to hear back after a few months. McKees has some great products for sure.

Thank you for the follow up Pat. :cheers:

You'll be pleasantly surprised at just how long McKee's 37 Plastic Trim Restorer holds up. Even though it's a very durable formula, I would recommend applying it often.

As my good friend Mike Phillips would say "Find something you like and use it often."

Here's the deal: McKee's 37 Plastic Trim Restorer is super easy to apply, so why sit around and wait until your trim looks bad before applying it again? :) I would apply Plastic Trim Restorer once a month because frequent car care is easy car care.

A little bit goes such a long way that an 8 ounce bottle will last YEARS, even if you apply it once a month!
