Why Plastic Trim Fades
Exterior automotive plastic is porous and infused with oils. Constant exposure to intense sunlight and harmful UV rays causes these oils to dry out, leaving a chalky, gray appearance. Harsh chemicals from improper car washes accelerate this process. A professional trim restoration car service is the best solution.

Our Expert Restoration Process
Our service is performed at our South El Monte studio to ensure a clean, controlled application for the best results. We use specialized restoration products to achieve a durable, factory-new finish.
- Deep Cleaning & Prep: We meticulously clean all plastic trim, using specialized cleaners to safely remove old dressings, wax residues, and contaminants from both interior and exterior surfaces.
- Precision Application: We apply a professional-grade restorer, working the product deep into the pores of the plastic to restore the original deep black color from within.
- Curing & Buffing: All excess product is carefully buffed off with a clean microfiber towel. This creates a uniform, dry finish that won't run or streak in the rain.
- UV Protection: The restorers we use contain strong UV blockers to guard against future damage, ensuring the finish lasts for months, not days.
