Default A good black trim cleaning products

What sort of stuff are you guys using for bringing up black trim to that wet/clean look? (Skirts) on a classic un painted

I use Autoglym bumper and trim gel

https://www.autoglym.com/bumper-trim-gel

There's probably more expensive stuff but I find it works well on the sideskirts, hockey sticks and door handles. You're more than welcome to try some when you pick those bits up.

Works very well and lasts ages, better than the 303 aerospace I used to use

Meguiars speed detailer actually gives a near permanent shine to the plastic roof rails. So should work on other hard plastics

Gtechniq G4 gets rave reviews.

Most do a good job, but it's the longevity that you get with some of the more pricey products which can make them worth spending on upfront.

Cheers chaps,
Currently using auto glem and it's ok for few days then leaves streaks down it, I've tried the gel and the speed/fast detailer, and the qashqai is going grey around the wipers plastic surround.

Thanks
