    Who here uses Solution Finish?

    Recently I have had a flurry of SUV's with weathered trim and bumpers bad! I have been dialing in my technique with this stuff and have been getting amazing results. By no means is it my favorite product to work with. Compered to a Hyper dressing etc. But it sure hits it out of the park!!! I have been using a plain white cotton towel cut in 1/4 strips for the most part. But at times a small coating applicator works on more intricate spots. I also saw a great video from Brian @ Apex testing all the bumper renewal products out:9 Way Plastic Trim Restore/Protectant Comparison!! 1 YEAR UPDATE!! - YouTube

    I have a bottle and use it when needed. I found cheap makeup sponges work as the best applicators for those small pieces

    It's great stuff. IME, don't -top- it. Others may disagree but I once topped with with a trim coating, and it went from that nice sating black to a mildish black grey tone.

    I use it and like it. After a few washes I usually top it with a spray sealant. I am reluctant to use a ceramic coating in the event i wanted to reapply. I use Opti-Seal on it usually.

    I have a bottle of Solution Grey and it works great. I don’t see how topping it with some form of protection would be a good idea. It is protection.

    Nice man. It’s a great product to restore trim. Check out their sealant over the top to add some more protection and keep that look longer.

    Don’t put a ceramic on it. Chris West has stated many times why not.

    Re: Who here uses Solution Finish?

    I've got a bottle I need to use.

    I tried cleaning my plastic trim 100 different ways and still can't get all the white (wax? Polish?) residue off before using the Solution Finish

    I've tried:
    Griots Rubber prep
    Carpro Eraser
    Optimum Power Clean full strength + drill brush

    Not sure what else I can try...
