Title: Best product for black plastic turning white on rigs?
Post by: carpsniperg2 on March 18, 2022, 11:18:05 AM
So what's the best stuff to use to bring the black back out of plastic that fading and turning white?

I am sure someone has been through this before and might have some recommendations?

I use ceramic wax on my paint AND black plastic. It seems to hold up much better than  Mother's Back to Black for me.... :dunno:

The best product for your application is Cerakote Trim Coat

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07SHJVK4G/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_i_JFJ27JEWZE7843J1CRQW

Unlike everything else, this is made to restore the finish on oxidized plastics and last for a long time. It doesn’t wash off with a trips to Brown Bear. It’s a semi permanent product that will last most people a couple years at the least.

Will this hurt paint if you get it on it? I see it says corrosive so that would be my only worry is getting it on paint and messing the paint up when rubbing the plastic trim.

I can’t speak to how anyone’s paint will react to this product. I will say though, if your painted parts are rubbing on anything, that rubbing area will have wear without regard to any other products.

Also, just the same as their lens restoration kits and other mfg restoration kits, if getting it on paint is a concern, that area should be cleaned and masked during the prep.

Yeah understand it’s not rubbing but where the fender meets with side of the rig is the spot that I was talking about. So masking it should work if I go that route.

Thanks

For the fender flairs on your Jeep ? Use a Mapp torch . Just did my buddies a few weeks ago . Works great , and you can touch it up whenever.

Well it was a beautiful day and had some down time after getting the home schooling done. So decided to dive into this project.

So after washing/taping and applying and pulling tape. Had about 3.5hrs into everything. Let me tell you what this cerakote plastic trim kit is legit!!!!
I have many guns coated with cerakote so I know the company is great!

I only used 4 of the 10 wipes to do a ton of plastic. I did the hood latches, all 4 fenders, window plastic trim, license plate holder,rear brake light, and rear bumper pads.

Anyone looking to do the same give this a shot. I did get a little spot on my paint we will see what it does over time. Just looks a little more dull now then the surrounding paint.

Pics to follow in a minute.

Says 200 car washes I watched some YouTube and some people were a year or year and a half in and still looked solid. I used not even half a box so 10.00 worth of product. If I get 6 months I’ll be happy 10.00 is pretty cheap for the huge difference it made.

I may have to try that in the future. Currently using mothers or meguiars back to black. (I have kept up on it so plastic has never got super white like they do) but it only lasts thru 1-2 times getting dirty then washing. Gets tiresome having to reapply.

Imagine how long it will last if you never wash your rig.
