Plastic treatment?
I was out washing the Queens truck (Yup, see note below) and after I got done I noticed that the black plastic under the Windshield is faded out. What do you all use to make it look black and pretty again?


Thanks and I better get back out and get to waxing it before she gets home..............

Have fun I'll be back before midnight and don't forget to remove the floor mats when you vacuum.


Your loving Queen.

Stoner's Trim Shine is the best I have used. I had an Avalanche b4 the Titan (read: lots and lots of plastic!) and all the guys on the Avalanche forum use the Stoners. It's one of the few that doesn't wash off after the first rain.

There is a product called back to black.
I usually just use black magic for tires.

I've always wondered what the Avy owners use for all that plastic ... saw one last week at a Padres game, looked like the owner hadn't ever treated/cleaned/blackened the plastic, it looked absolutely horrible, FADED.

good to know......

When I had my truck detailed last year... the detail shop used some stuff that worked really well... I'm sure he mixed it up himself... but it almost seems like since he applied that junk, it's gotton "whiter?"

It was the most useful and well thought out vehicle I have ever owned. Unfortunately, looks only a mother could love!
