Turtle Wax Ice now has a new place in my detailing kit. I ran out of my regular plastic protectant, so I remembered I put the Ice away after being thoroughly disappointed at it's performance on paint.



Well I wanted to clean the dirt and polish residues on my trucks trim and thought I might as well just use it since it says safe for plastic. I think this is what the original purpose for this product should have been. Less people would have been disappointed.



I just wipe on with a terry towel and buff off with a MF. It cleans up the white residue with less effort than armor all and leaves a nice semi-gloss sheen to the plastic which does not attract dirt because there's no oily remnant on the plastic, it also buffs cleanly off paint so it's not as much of a hassle as armor all. Best part is it's not super slick so I can also use it on my trucks step rails and not fear about slipping and falling.



Oh yeah I was wondering why I couldn't post this all afternoon.
 
in addition to what you're using it for, i would probably use it on glass, chrome bumpers, etc., if i bought it...
 
Ha. when that came out 2 years ago thats one of the only used I found for it. It actually protected and beaded on textured plastic better than paint. go figure.
 
It sounds like Formula 1 Shine It All.



Meant to do paint and every car surface. I was unimpressed with it on paint but excellent on rubber/plastic trim. Cleans it and seals with a tough sealant that darkens the trim and doesn't run when wet.
 
Yeah no running when wet, expected since it doesn't leave an oily layer for it's look, rather it's more like a wax in that you wipe it all off.
