    how to restore ext trim

    Another q about my 95 Civic, which has seen better days. The ext trim especially along windows is dry, cracked, and faded. Also the win wiper area and similar materials are also faded. I wondered if there was a way to restore this trim and keep a shine on it. Anything I try suck as cleaner or basic polish just streaks or fades.

    For the faded trim, use Poorboys Trim Restorer. Works wonders.

    Poorboys trim restorer is the product that you are looking for. I`m not saying that you won`t have to re-apply it but it lastest quite long and gives back the gloss that you are looking for.

    I would use it to start with a tooth brush work the product in then buff off. You can then use hos natural look for a nice new looking clean shine.
    Its what i have been using for my plastic trim

    Thanks, I`ve gotta place a few orders here and there, so I`ll try the Poorboys. Also, what is HOS?

    Thanks.
