Review: McKee’s 37 Plastic Trim Restorer

[Marc08EX]

UPDATE:

I washed the car this morning (first wash since application). So it's been approximately 33 days since application. Here are some pictures:





Overall, I'm impressed with this product!! It has been baking under the hot Arizona sun with no ill effects. Also, it survived the wash. I've only used the Meguiar's Ultimate Black and a sample of the Poorboy's trim product (PB was a long time ago) and they were both gone after the first wash. This McKee’s 37 Plastic Trim Restorer held on pretty well after washing the car. Definitely a thumbs up!

PS: Please excuse the dirt from the wheel well. Didn't have time to scrub them down.

I'm never reading one of your reviews again Marc. You had a dirty wheel well.


Looks like the Mckee's holds up well. Awesome to know!!

@Marc08EX. Looks very impressive.

I'm really liking the looks of that as well.

What product do you currently use that would generally fill this need? The Wolfgang Exterior Trim Sealant? They aren't exactly similar though, are they?

Very nice Marc. How would you compare this to WG's trim sealant?

I'm wondering also if anyone has used both McKee's and WG? I currently use WG. It was expensive, but it lasts and it works really good. The WG definitely has a strong petroleum smell when applying. It would be nice if I can get the same results from the much less expensive McKee's. One other potive thing to note about WG is that it spreads really well.

UPDATE:

I washed the car yesterday. It was the 5th time I washed it since application. I used the Meguiars Car Wash Plus+ the first 2 times, the Meguiars Ultimate Wash & Wax the next 2 times and I used Chemical Guys Citrus Wash & Gloss the 5th time yesterday.

It has been 79 days since initial application. It's undergoing the brutal Phoenix heat (We hit 120F last week) and it's still there. This is very impressive already but I'm more impressed that it survived 5 washes and still going strong. Lots of trim blacking/restoring products last as long as you don't wash it. But from the few products I've tried before, they were pretty much gone after the first wash. This product lasted 5 washes!!! It's crazy! And 3 of the washes were used with a strong soap. Of course it's not as black as it was originally but it's still there!

I don't know about you but this says a lot IMO. You guys should buy this product if you're looking for a great trim restorer product!
