AG order came in and did my 1st PC detail this weekend. Had some splatter, mostly from Clearkote RMG and some from from XMT1 & 2, which got on some black trim pieces and windshield wiper arms.

Please, whats a good product or method to clean the black plastic trim & flat-black wiper arms? Any recommendations for a product to "blacken" them up & protect them after cleaning?

Thanx!

Hey Sparkie-

The DG271 looks teriffic on the wiper arms & plastic cowl in your photo! I never would have thought AIO as a solution to my spalatter. Looks like I'll be placing another order with AG (and a little neater next time I detail my car)!!!

Many Thanks,
Warren

You're welcome. On #271 it's different then dressing, it's more of a polish. The more you buff the better the shine.

Sparkie-

Thanx again for the help.

Curiously, is the Ford GT a client's car or is it yours? It (the original GT40....yeah I'm that old) has been a dream car for me since I was a kid. It was my favorite body for the Aurora Electric Race Set I had & also a Cox 1/18 scale Gas Car I had. I have a model of one on top of my Audio Equipment Rack to this day.

Best,
W
