Good product
Excellent trim restoration product, use latex gloves, masking tape and give it time to dry, makes black plastic trim look new. Can't testify as to how long it lasts yet, will update if there are issues

Read directions before you start to paint. Use a sponge, this works well
Best product EVER, plastic never looked so good. MUST WEAR GLOVES. This is some strong stuff, like a paint

Top Tier product if you are willing to take the time to properly apply it.
If you are looking for a quick wipe and walk away product, this is not it. If you are looking for a long lasting protectant that is going to make your trim look better than new, have the patience and willingness to go the extra mile in application, this is an outstanding product. I would rate it a 5 if only basing it on the end result of a patient application. I downgraded it to a 4 based upon what really needs to happen with the application. First off, clean and prep the trim. After a normal car wash, I went over all of my trim with a foaming tire cleaner (Hyper Foam Wheel Cleaner & Tire Prep) and a tire scrub brush. This was rinsed and followed by wiping the trim down with a Panel Prep (IPA type) spray. Once the panel prep had evaporated, the trim was ready for the application of the product. WEAR GLOVES. This is not a clear liquid, it's more of a creamy dye that will stain whatever it touches, hands, clothing, etc... Using a foam applicator or foam paint brush (I used both, the brush for tight areas where I needed more control). Apply a layer of the product... and yes, one layer may look streaky but don't sweat it. Use a circular motion with your foam applicator whenever possible. Apply to a section of the trim then immediately level with a microfiber cloth. Continue the first pass over all trim on the car using this process. All told, it took three total passes of all trim using this process to get uniform solid coverage but man, it looks great when finished. Better than new. It's been on my Jeep for two months thus far and, with routine maintenance washes, it looks like I applied it yesterday.

Restores to a new look...
Use gloves when using this stuff. It works great. Two coats applied within 30 minutes for a newer look.

Watery and messy. Leaves streaks.
What a surprise to find a very watery and messy liquid in this bottle. It was very difficult to apply because it kept dripping all over the place. They recommend wearing gloves, but don't supply any. I don't keep plastic gloves on hand. I had to use plastic bags on my hand. If some accidentally gets on the paint of the car, it will not wipe off. It smears. I did the applications as directed on the bottle and did two applications as recommended but it has a very streaky look. I accidentally got some on my arm and it left a rash. I would not recommend this watery product. The car looks better but not very good.

Coating keeps failing on Ram truck rear bumper plastic
I put this coating on the front bumper step and it is working fine, looks good and does not bubble up in the rain.I have put it on the back bumper step and it continually fails, twice now, fails within a day.I thought surface contamination even though I scrubbed it with dish soap and a scrunge the first time and it failed to stick. Second time used more aggressive cleaning alcohol IPA, but it refuses to stick to the plastic. Then when it rains it forms a rough raised texture that can be scraped off with fingers. It seemed to dry a little sticky too on the rear bumper. I think the thing to do is use an adhesion promoter and black flat bumper paint instead of this coating. So far just wasting my time with it. And I found Chemical Guys wet mirror finish glaze rubbed in and wiped off when dry restored the black cowl plastic very nicely and it survived the rain, I might try that on the back bumper before using paint.
