Polish Angel: Bond, Black Bond: initial thoughts and observations, and a longevity test

I applied solution finish and topped it with uttg+ approximately 3 months ago and have not noticed any degradation of the trim. Data point of one.

Dang. Mine after looked like your before. I think I will have to spray these with the wurth satin black trim paint I bought to bring them back

Black bond darkened it more than dlux but I used dlux on rest as I plan on repainting it anyways now

We can call it 2 months...

Washed truck yesterday
Trim had water spots
Washed with 2bm and mckees si02 wash.
Water spots on trim are gone

Dew/mist from overnight caused water to sit
I wiped it off on my lunch break with a DMT and it was spotted again. Hopefully it washes off again it but might be a month until I bucket wash it again. :)

The previous spots had to have been there almost a month.

Observations: previous personal best was 6 days with multiple consecutive treatments of other trim products on this windshield plastic area.

I bought this truck used and I never really properly cared for the plastic after I bought it.

Quite frankly of black bond lasts until summer on this trim I`ll be happy. It`s at that point to where I should replace it or spray it. I don`t think It was made for this badly faded trim but so far so good. Seems to be fading a little bit around some areas but compared to what it was originally it`s still much better.

It`s possible I should have done multiple treatments since the plastic was so bad but I did use a lot already on this front piece.

Side note I`ve had good results with this on the rear plastic trim around the tail lights on my challenger as well since application.

The running boards are doing well and side mirrors too.

Overall all these 2006 130k mile+ pieces are still much better looking than it started.

I highly doubt it lasts two years, and I might not even have the truck two more years but like I said if it lasts until summer and I can apply again I think I`m ok with that.

I`ll take some pics in the sun tomorrow and show the water spots. Perhaps they will come off with a qd or rw.

I`m bringing back this old thread. How long did the Polish Angel Black Bond last?
I sold the truck in december of 2018 and the door handles and side mirrors were still dark but the front windshield plastic area and running boards only stayed looking as good as the initial pics about 3 or so months but never went back to fully faded like the before pics.

I find this product works much better on newer pieces and I actually bought the 100ml probably two or more years ago and I used it on every trim coating for a newer vehicle until Poorboys came out with their trim coating.

I still prefer black bonds look overall on the lower trim on the Challenger`s and front plastics over any other trim coating I`ve used.
