    Are you trying to say that Blackfire Spray Sealant will outlast and outperform the Trim Sealant? If so I would be willing to bet it wouldn’t..

    RE: Blackfire Trim and Tire Sealant.

    How can this be considered a
    dedicated trim Sealant?

    Even its name says otherwise.

    Total Trim and Tire Sealant. It does both. I’ve never tried it on tires but it sure fits the bill on plastic & rubber trim.

    Just the opposite.. just like Reload would not last on plastic as Dlux would.

    Here's your comparison:

    "Carpro Reload is just 1 example of a liquid spray on paint sealant that falls flat when compared to just about any trim protectant. "

    •TT&TS does both? = Not a dedicated trim Sealant.
    -How about: Multi-purpose.

    •Optimum Car Wax = Not a dedicated trim Sealant.
    -How about: Also Multi-purpose.
    -and it has patented UV-A/B absorbers, to boot.


    •Oh yeah:
    -I’ll take $5.00 worth of that Sealant bet
    you proposed earlier. The Opponents:
    -O.C.W. (a Sealant) vs. BF T.T. & T. Sealant.

    Our friend Justin would remove the cowl, and spray his favorite trim sealant on all surfaces.

    •Using a Sealant, that comes in spray form,
    would definitely allow you to not only reach
    and evenly coat all those corners...but all
    other areas of the cowl as well.
    -A Sealant...like Optimum Car Wax...
    comes to mind.


    •Note:
    -Whether or not you remove the cowl,
    is solely your decision to make.
    -For the record: I’ve done it either way:
    with the cowl on; or, with the cowl removed.

    Re: Something for plastic cowl on trucks?

    Optimum car wax I didn't think was a sealant for plastic trim. I was hoping to use something dedicated that isn't water based. I have PERL but it washes off too fast, being water based
