Rescue my Trim!

[Midnite8]

I need some advice on how to remove Car Pro DLUX from my black trim. When I originally applied it, I put way to much on and did not buff off the excess. I just want to somehow remove it and reapply it again properly. Is there some kind of abrasive method I can do that will polish it off without damaging the trim?

I would like to know too. Closest thing that I have found that will remove Dlux, is Magic Eraser, but it will not remove evenly.

Optimum says their spray polishes can be used on trim. Hyper polish may be worth trying.

Yvan from optimum says he uses it to clean up old trim and help remove oxidation.

I have never tried to polish off a trim coating with hyper polish but I know it doesn't stain trim. I never tape trim when I use it.

I think the Optimum podcast that talks about their polishes is where I heard it.

I've heard the best way is to put Dlux on thick. Did you put a double coat on?

That is what caused the problem in the first place. Two coats will work if applied thinly.

Yep, I applied too liberably. So what would happen if I used an orange pad and M205 on it? Or even try wet sanding?

Wet sanding plastic trim? Oh, heck NO.

The optimum polish is probably a good idea.

I think M205 would stain the trim. I wouldn't wet sand either.
