Re: how do u guys gettape to stick to plastic trim?
if nothings sticking, then polish or wax won't stick well either.

I'll guess you want to use a product and are wanting to protect the trim? Why not do a small test spot with it to see if it even stains?
This ^ A quick wipe with alcohol will remove the previously applied protectant and allow even the soft stick green tape to hold just fine.

Why are you using duct tape over trim.
Protection ?
Normally the less adhesive the better, so what is the plan?

Re: how do u guys gettape to stick to plastic trim?
Caution use at own risk!
I tend to walk on the wild side. Rubber (if it's really rubber!) I use the Wal-Mart Brake cleaner spray, cleans very well. I use it on all rubber products (rubber mallet, rubber plier/hammer handles, radiator hoses, weather stripping, extension cords etc.). Seems to work and gets tape to stick.
Be very careful though.
I usually spray on a rag and wipe clean.
It will melt Craftsman screwdriver handles though.....Ask me how I know. I did discover if you use a rag (red rag), spray on rag, wipe down the screwdriver once, not back and forth. I've had them come back new and clear. Takes the red and blue off though. They even smell new like out of the package new. Just don't spray and start scrubbing!
Be cautious, try a discreet area first!
