    Making Black Shine without making it slippery?

    Hey Guys Im new to the forums here but own sgf auto detail and wanted to throw out a hopefully simple question and see what you guys use.

    Right now on heavily dirty plastic I'm using meguiars degreaser and a magic eraser and then dressing it meguiars back to black gel. It does a great job as you can see in the photos but it does leave the step a little slick for the client. The last thing i need them doing is slipping and falling getting into their clean car. Any suggestions of a good black plastic shine that is less slippery?

    Here are a couple pics of before and after.

    I do not use dressing on those areas specifically for that reason. You could try a water-based dressing, like Meguiars Natural Shine or chemical guys VRP.

    Silk shine by chemical guys is a must have.

    Amen to that. It is now and will probably always be my go to interior protectant.

    And I've tried most of them out there, main stream and private label.

    My current favorite is Blackfire interior protectant. It does have a hefty price to it compared to silk shine which is another of my favorites. I mainly use silk shine for clients and Blackfire interior protectant for personal vehicles.

    U could try CG black on black and wipe down with a mf. I like this application on rubber mats but works well on trim and engine as well.

    I use Meg's QID, typically interior trim isn't faded.
