Anyone else try ZCS on plastic trim?

I used it on my BMW plastic trim and was astonished at the results, but I've never heard anyone else really bring it up? I've previously used armoral, kAIO, and one of Meg's trim gels but non of them went on as easily and as EVENLY as ZCS. I just hope the look stays cause its nice. Pics will of course be posted when I finish my ultra over kill detail.
 
It leaves a nice gloss to the black trim, and for some reason it hides or blends in small scuff marks when I apply it on black trim.
 
I've tried it on textured black trim and couldn't see any visual difference lookswise. Based on others results it sounds as if it works well on smooth plastic.
 
ZCS is certainly in a class by itself. Since I have been extremely busy at work ZAIO and ZCS have saved me.
 
I use it on all trim and all my customers ask me how did I make the trim look so great.



I z6/cs/ and sometimes even z8 and the trim will stand out, even textured trim and bumpers.
 
On textured trim using ZAIO first and then ZCS will make the trim look even better. ZCS alone on textured trim looks very dry like it's been absorbed and does not make slightly faded plastic darken in color much. ZAIO first then Z-6 wipe to help remove the ZAIO embbeded into the textured surface and then ZCS. The ZCS will have more of a 303 look to it and will darken the color more too.
 
Interesting you insist it looks dry. When I applied ZCS today on my (non-textured) bmw trim it looked quite oily, as if someone squeezed the oils out of a wax and rubbed it all over the trim.



On that note, ZCS does have a sort of oily feeling to it if you get it on your hands, doesn't it?
 
Yes, on NON-textured trim it does looks glossy like when you put it on your paint. It has a different look when put on textured plastic. If the textured trim is a bit old and slightly oxidized then do not expect ZCS to make it look new again. ZAIO first to clean it up and provide the base and then ZCS and the gloss can be seen.
 
I put another layer of ZCS on my trim last night... its still looks good today however it has lost that oily look :( Never the less, this is now my go to for trim
 
Yup, I have done it. Here is what it looks like about an hour after application. (Its on the mirror and the plastic windshield piece.
