Best product for plastic trim / bumpers?

[abirozy]

What is the best product to clean the black trim and bumpers on my R1T, especially water spots? I have noticed that these areas tend to get a lot of splashes or water drips and it is hard to come off with the general cleaner. I have also noticed after a car wash, that the rear bumper tends to get a lot of water drips from the truck bed so need a product that would be good to clean water spots off these areas.

It’s like crack for plastic. Once you use shit, you must continue or the black plastic will turn milky looking. Keeps ‘da suckers buying the shite! I use Aerospace 303.

The 303 products are great, I've been using the fabric guard on convertible tops for years.

I just bought a Cerakote Ceramic Trim Coat Kit that I will try out on the R1T soon.

It’s more protectant than cleaner but it cleans fairly well. I’ve never had any bad water spot issues so no direct experience to share sorry. On the flip side it will prevent them. I use it on every surface on my cars that isn’t painted. It’s great stuff. Keeps all the plastics…and the plastic vegan leather looking good.

Also just bought the Cerakote but haven't had a need to use it yet. Reviews from Jeep and Bronco owners was very positive.

I had some mud puddles stain the plastics and the aerospace 303 knocked it right out when soap and water wouldn’t

Iam removing all my trim before the wrap , drop off a hydro dip shop to have the water transfer on carbon fiber finish with gloss uv clear .

I have done this process on several Sema builds and it is a perfect combination

there various colors of carbon

I really like Cerakote. Rather than a big bottle of liquid I may never get through, it comes in more than enough small individually wrapped wipes. The small/thin wipe size makes it easy to control making it possible to get right up to the edge of the plastic and not get any on the paint. Also, the "look" is very consistent.
