Need a product for my faded trim around the glass of my Tahoe. It is in really bad shape. It is white looking and has no black appearance. What is the best product(s) need to restore this trim Thanks!!
 
Assuming (which has come back to bite me on a few recent threads :nervous: ) you're talking about rubber trim as opposed to black metal....



I really oughta deal with this properly on my Tahoe, but all I've done so far is clean it up and maintain it with ValuGard's Fast Finish after every wash.



I cleaned mine up with Hi-Temp Heavy Cut/"357" followed by KAIO. The 357 is one of those rare compounds that works OK on most rubber/plastic trim as long as you don't let it dry, and it got rid of the really nasty oxidized-white outer layer of rubber. The KAIO did its usual cleaning and, well..."good enough" for the beater SUV. I would've normally KSG/845'ed it, but I didn't bother; I redid the KAIO intermittently for a while but now I'm merely doing the Fast Finish (a very good QD for stuff like this).



If you really want to "restore" it properly, you could get into the ValuGard ETR kit, but maybe just a good cleaning/maintaining would suffice.
 
Like Accumulator said, 845IW works well as does 476s...greater durability than dedicated trim products. I like 476s for this, but you have to wipe on and wipe right off.
 
MDRX8- I you give it a go, post back about how it works. If nothing else, maybe it'll motivate to really *do* the trim on mine; not going the extra step after I cleaned it up a little has sorta left me back at square one :O Well, it's not *that* bad.....
