I need a product or recommendation on what to use to clean/protect rough/textured plastic. I used Mothers Back-To-Black on the interior lower door panels of my new Aura and I noticed that there's a white haze on it showing the wipe marks. My Buick also has rough plastic trim up on the roof rails and other various area of the exterior. I'm not sure if it's a product problem or if I just did not work it in enough or perhaps I used too much. Any recommendations would be helpful.

I was thinking of placing another order with AG today before the current 15% discout code expires.

Thanks, Fritz

Call me crazy, but I use Souveran on my black plastic door handles. After I finish waxing the car, I use the residue that's on the applicator and go over the plastic pieces. It removes any stains and it keeps it looking new.

I recently purchased 303 from AG and I've found it to be great! The wife's Quest has a rough black plastic trim on the back bumper. I could never get it to look completely black or retain the black look using Mother's Black to Black. I tried the 303 and it worked perfectly! Here is a link to the post:

I LOVE my 303 but I notice that it runs a bit with condensation and rain. The streaks do seem to go away if you wipe them, however.

I'm contemplating trying AIO and then Klasse SG on my little bit of black trim now that I've got it nicely soaked with 303. It says on the Klasse bottles that both are safe for plastic, and since Jason recommends detailing an engine with sealant for long-lasting protection I figured why not? for plastic that gets beat by the sun all the time.

Just my $0.02. :D
