Hi guys

What is the best product to get my black plastic trim looking stunning?

Also what kind of tyre shine do people use?

Zaino Z16 is the best looking Natural finish tyre shine.
Megs Endurance is very oily and will end up spraying greasy residue all down the side of your lovely clean motor after a very short drive  :fighting:

Megs endurance is good if you like a high gloss finish. To avoid it slinging residue down the side of the car I leave it an hour or two then buff it with a cloth. This also leaves a slightly less glossy finish

I was recommended the sonax trim restorer - still haven't had a chance to use it so can't say yet whether i too would recommend it  :rolleye:

Megs Endurance for tyres.

Gtechniq C4 for trim. Expensive but brilliant.
