CERAKOTETrim Coat Professional Pack - 4 oz.

I bought this trim coat months ago, just got around to trying it on my truck today. I was totally blown away! Here's why: The product comes in the form of about 4 x 4 inch square wipes, 10 wipes individually packaged. When I looked at the first one I was disappointed, assuming that the little wipe couldn't possibly cover very many square inches of black plastic. Well, I was wrong. The first wipe completely brought a 3-inch wide wheel well trim back to life, then did four black plastic decorative inserts covering about half of one of my truck's running boards, then made a start on the next wheel well. Ok, nice.Somehow the magic ingredient in the wipes magically transforms dull black plastic trim to deep black. And somehow it works even when the plastic has white areas from previous waxing. How do they do that?After I did all the trim on my truck I still had several wipes left, so I thought what the heck, why not see what happens on the 4-year-old roll-up bed cover that looks really, really tired. I'd previously tried various ways to try to brighten up the cover, but it always ended up looking like crap; I've actually considered trying to paint the cover with plastic paint. Nothing to lose, so I opened another of the Cerakote wipes, gingerly tried it on one small spot. Whoa, wait, what? The little spot looked great! Ok, I'm going for it. Took three or four of the wipes to revitalize the entire bed cover; it looks like new! Yowza!I'm pretty excited about the Cerakote Trim Coat. Ordering more today. Highly recommended.

I finally got the perfect day to do & apply this treatment to my truck plastic parts & I must say that I'm pretty impressed w/the outcome... Pictures speak volume... It's like when you take a shower on a hot sticky, nasty day & you instantly feel so relaxed. This is how my vehicle feels after I washed it & applied the cerakote. My truck feels like it picked up some extra power... Did anyone ever beside me feel this? Ok well if not, it damn sure looks like it haul a whole lot of a--... I mean a lot too... Check 4 yourself...Note: Do not apply this chemical to anything w/out using some type of 🧤... Sticky residue...

I love it so far. It's been 1 week since application. My bumpers look new again. I even applied it to my metal fender flares, which were an awful dull black/gray. Everything is black and shiny now.

I am not sure how to review this product, I am a mobile detailer and I have used a lot of different trim care products that "restores" plastic. I have read a lot of reviews about this product before trying it myself, very mixed reviews stating that it streaks, dis-colorize, etc. So I decided to try this on my car that has different types of plastic to see how it responds to the different types and how to best apply it with different methods and here are my findings from this one test.Firsat and foremost, a deep clean with schampoo or similar is required, and after that I highly recommend to use isopropanol or similar to really get rid of any dirt and grease.On textured plastic I felt like I needed to "massage" the product in to really get in to the textures and then even it out in a smooth overlapping motion to get rid of excess coating but not dry it wipe, leave just enough for it to not "blotch" together. Where I didn't do this it would streak a bit afterwards, if I left too much somewhere it would create a "blotchy" spot. And if you remove too much you will not get that rich darke look. So, so far very "touchy".On untextured and "sleek" plastic it was much easier to apply, it went on thick and nice, but here it was even more important to not leave too much on or it would come out a bit "streaky", I put on thick enough for it to create a covering layer and then try to "level" it even with enough coating on for it to be able to be smoothed out with a light touch, this coating doesn't seem to level itself out like their headlight kits ceramic does and you will have to smooth it yourself, on this plastic it took more time to try to perfect it, the places where I just overlapped it as instructed it would give a streak where the coating didn't level itself. But where you succeeded it will look pretty good, just use patience and a light hand.On semi textured plastic and also grey, I just covered it all in whatever motion I felt like and finished with an overlapping once over and so far that turned out the best on that plastic, propably because that was more forgiving for mistakes, harder to tell, and the not overtextured and semi sleek quality made it easier to apply in a more even overlap, no need to go back and forward to get that base cover.With the method of going over the plastic a few times and then smooth it with a patch side not already used one wipe goes a decent way, I first planned it out based on the instructions that I would need 1 wipe per mirror cap, 1 for the front fender, maybe 2, the same for the back and 1 each for the rear upper widow vent deco trims, this is a 2001 Chevy Tahoe for any one that knows what trims I am describing now, and 1 for the front window air intake trim. So, I ended up using a couple of spares to smooth out those test areas where I had to work in the product to try to give leveling a chance once "pretreated", and that worked ok if you did it fast enough, I did this fairly late in the evening so it wasn't too hot outside, but if you let it sit and harden for too long you will actually risk creating streaks because of adding to a semi-dry coating will "smear" the underlying layer, so if you feel you need to do this do it sooner rather then later.Once applied I took a closer look the next day to actually inspect the coating, areas where I did the extra working in and leveled it by lightly overlap without excess looks the best, areas where I just overlapped could have "blotch" spots, areas where I leveled to late streaked a bit, or got a "smeared" appearance.I feel that no matter which method I used, I didn't get that rich dark look I was hoping for like I am getting with my "restorer" that last a month or two, it still looks better but not quite what I expected. I can obviously not speak for longevity yet, but if it stays on for 200+ washes or so I think this will be an ok investment, I always have my car maintained as a detailer, and if this looks good and save me the time and products to maintain I am happy to have tried it. As long as you make the good prep-work and is patient I can see you getting great results with this, don't stress the process, try on inauspicious areas first to learn and watch the behavior on your specific plastic before you go all in. I tried different methods on purpose on my own car before committing to this product to use professionally, you will need to play around with it yourself, but I feel that if you follow the instructions blindly you might get undesired results with this product. All plastics are different, textures, age, etc make the plastic absorb products differently, previous treatments needs to removed, the prep work is really important any work on a car is only as good as your preparations.So, will I buy this again? sure, I will give this another shot, now that I know better how it acts and appears on at least 3 different plastics I can improve my technique to apply it and feel fairly comfortable with the result. I will try it on a clients car soon that has extremely weathered plastics and he has agreed to a trial run on his car, then we will definitely see how this product work, my car is after-all continuously maintained and is not a fair object for this product, not in the sense of actually restoring the old plastic anyway, I had hoped for a richer and darker black though, but at least it looks very clean and shiny, hopefully for a long time.I will update this review once I have tested it on my clients trims, they are really in bad shape.But until then, give this a try but remember to take your time and try out smaller areas first before going all in at once, try different methods and just make sure to smooth it out lightly as you go.

This product is amazing. I've tried several products on the plastic/vinyl parts of my truck previously and it did not last very long. My vehicle would look as if nothing was done to it in a couple days. This product is great, not only did it restore the original black finish on all the exterior vinyl areas, but is been a week and still looks great. Used the product on my wife's caddy getting the same awesome results. Reordering the larger container of this product, I like it so much.

This is the real dealThis product works great it’s been 3 weeks since the application and it still looks like new and it’s not slick at all. All black plastic on my 19 Raptor looks like new.Time to buy another one to do my wife’s explorer

This product actually works and works well. I have tried a few of the trim restoring creams and sprays before, without luck and was happily surprised at how well this worked. I was skeptical about it at first but gave it a chance based on cerakote’s history. It’s only been on for a few days but it hasn’t faded at all and looks like it should hold up well. Super easy to put on, just make sure you wear gloves as the product really hardens up and have a microfiber rag to wipe down after.
