A Difference You Can See

Faded plastic bumpers, door handles, or fender flares detract from your vehicle's overall aesthetic. At Detailed by J, we offer a professional solution for vehicle plastic restoration that delivers a true, lasting impact—far superior to any temporary DIY fix.

Why Plastic Trim Fades

Exterior automotive plastic is porous and infused with oils. Constant exposure to intense sunlight and harmful UV rays in Los Angeles causes these oils to dry out, leaving a chalky, gray appearance.

Harsh chemicals from improper automated car washes accelerate this process. A professional trim restoration service is the best solution to reverse this damage and protect the material.

Our Expert Restoration Process

Our service is performed at our South El Monte studio to ensure a clean, controlled application. We use specialized restoration products to achieve a durable, factory-new finish.

01

Deep Clean & Prep

We meticulously clean all plastic trim, using specialized cleaners to safely remove old dressings, wax residues, and contaminants.

02

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.

03

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.

04

UV Protection

The restorers we use contain strong UV blockers to guard against future damage, ensuring the finish lasts for months, not days.
