Meguiars D4510 - Plastic & Vinyl Coating Review

[Eldorado2k]

Here's a quik review of a product that rarely ever gets mentioned. I figure it might be so rarely talked about that some people who are a bit new might not even know it exists.. So here it is, Meguiars D4510.



This little aerosol spray trim "coating" is quite a valuable tool to have in the arsenal as it makes those little finishing touches stand out on a vehicle. Areas like the windshield cowl can sometimes be tedious to fully apply dressing or protection to, but this aerosol makes it easy.
Spray it into AC vents instead of using a messy brush or an applicator.
But as many of you experienced detailers already know, using it to dress honeycomb grills is where this product earns its place.

Turns ordinary parts:





And really makes them stand out



Gotta love the small details that help set it apart from the rest



Underrated product. Thumbs up in my book.👍🏽

Every engine I do gets a spray of this. It makes the covers black and shiny without ANY greasy feel or look. I have at least 4 bottles at all times. GREAT stuff

Can you spray into an applicator and then wipe on?

how does it compare to this...

No, you can't. It must be sprayed directly onto the surface.

They're very different products. Personally I do not like that product in your picture^
Ultimate Black Restorer darkens faded trim, but not to the level that D4510 does... Ultimate Black Restorer goes on like more of a clear coating that dries to a extremely resilient coating that's nearly impossible to remove. [that can be a bad thing if you don't love the look it gives] It leaves a more artificial look than D4510, which is another reason I don't really like it.

D4510 leaves a deep dark look with just the right amount of shine and lasts 2-3 weeks on the surface. Smells good too.

Thanks for the review. What kind of durability do you see?

Thanks for the review. What kind of durability do you see?

2-3 weeks. You'll notice the difference here between the top parts of the grill which have been applied vs. the very bottom piece of the black plastic grill that hasn't.

So wiping down after spraying is not necessary?
For those of you who spray air conditioning vents does the product leave any type of residue that will eventually build up and need to be cleaned with a cleaner type product?
Thanks,

Nope, I never wipe it down. I think that would mess things up, possibly smear the finish.
