The Review:
Here's a picture of the product description and instructions:
This product's description seems to be the same as the Blackfire AIO Trim & Tire Protectant but for interior surfaces. At least that's how I understood the product description. After trying the BF AIO Trim & Tire Protectant, I really loved the AIO nature of it. It cleans, protects and shines up the surface all in one step so it saves a lot of time. Based on this, I knew this new Pinnacle product will be a home run.
So let's get on with the review.
Here are before pictures of the test subject's passenger front door panel:
As you can see, the surface looks very dry and has dust particles and finger print smudges.
When working with interior products, I really don't like spraying the product directly to the surface because of overspray. Because of this, I prefer to spray the product to eh microfiber towel as shown below:
Here's me wiping the product on to the surface:
Here's the 50/50 shot of the passenger front door panel:
Here's the afters of the same panel. Please excuse the different lighting conditions of the before and after shots. The sun was covered by the clouds when I finished this panel.
The following pictures show the performance of the product in different parts of the interior.
Rear Passenger Side Door Panel Before:
Rear Passenger Side Door Panel After:
Rear Driver Side Door Panel Before:
Rear Driver Side Door Panel After:
Steering Wheel Before (Filthy):
After wiping half of the steering wheel gently, here's the amount of dirt I was able to pull off.
I went over the left half again with more pressure and it even made the towel dirtier.
Steering Wheel 50/50:
Dash 50/50:
Arm Rest 50/50:
Observations:
The color of the product is milky white. It's a little bit on the runny side.
The scent of the product is very pleasant. It's a cross between coconut and pina colada. This scent makes this product a pleasure to work with.
The product seems to dry to the touch and because of this, you don't feel the product being oily at all. This is a big plus for me for any interior product. I hate products that don't dry to the touch or leave oily residue. This agrees with the product description.
The shine it leaves behind is very low sheen IMO. I don't like any shine in any of my interior cleaner/protectants and because of this, I only use Meguiar's Quik Interior Detailer to clean my interior surfaces. But I see myself using this product because the shine level is very low. And what's great is you can lessen the shine even further by wiping the surface with a dry microfiber towel. I've tested this and it works just as advertised.
This product definitely cleans the surface as shown by the dirty microfiber towel I got from wiping the steering wheel.
The only con I see with this product is the price. $24.99 is pretty steep for me.
Conclusion:
This product works just as advertised. It cleans, conditions and protects the surface all in one step. The AIO feature of this product is a home run in my opinion because it saves so much time. And it works effectively. If you don't mind spending the cash, I'd highly recommend you try this product out.
