Morning all, I’m sure someone here has an answer to this...

After giving the barge it’s first proper clean in a few months, I’m a bit stuck on the pillars. I used a trim product but it looks all smeary.

So my question is - what does everyone use to get the black bits looking black again?

Cheers all

Not cheap but works, you use very little and it lasts for years....

With the above gents recommending the gtechniq, it's now on my shopping list

Thanks all, I’ll get some ordered

Does the Gtechniq give a glossy or semi matt finish? The Autoglym finish looks very glossy. 2011MY 4.4TDV8 Autobiography Baltic Blue

I've used C4 Permanent Trim Restorer on all RRs for a few years now (See images below) and it is the only products that lasts, leaving a satin finish.

The smaller bottle will let you do a full 322 (all black trims including the windshield wipers cowl, etc). but then you'll want to use it on your other cars, so opt for the larger one really.

I was looking at the black plastic on my car the other day and wondering what I could do to improve them, so good timing on finding this thread!

I think too many people have been following the gtechniq recommendation - it's sold out!

Dunc. The life you have is the only one you'll get; make the most of it.
