About this deal

Not a lot between this and its Triplewax cousin. It’s another spray and leave product, and left a high gloss finish. Price is identical and both are top buys, but this was beading slower at the end.

data-src="https://cdn.media.amplience.net/i/washford/haluk-car-cleaning-spot1-step3-process-winter21-1382x867" Keeping your car exterior clean is a great way to take care of the aesthetic of your car as well as its longevity. Follow our step by step guide. impressions were how nice it felt to apply, very smooth indeed and also how little was needed to finish the section, it wasn't long at all before the whole arch was finished without recharging the applicator. When your paintwork looks great, don't let your car down with faded exterior plastic and rubber. Bumper & Trim Gel is a rich gel that instantly transforms and protects all exterior unpainted plastic and rubber surfaces, returning them to their original deep colour.The label contains all the pertinent information whilst the gel itself is clear and smells a bit like a Summer Pudding, as you know I am not very good a scents but it smells nice, fresh and berry like :thumb: If you favour a gel type dressing and want one which gives you a non greasy OEM finish to your textured plastic trims then Autoglym Bumper and Trim gel might well be worth a look.

Coat 2 was applied in the same manner after waiting for no longer than 15 minutes, no 50/50 shots taken here as the difference was not as stark, in fact I struggled to see it and asked my self if another coat was really worth it if I am honest. I spent a while walking round the car taking pictures etc and I have got to admit to being pretty impressed with the finish, if I was being ultra critical I would say that I would have liked to see it slightly darker but it really looked good without that horrible 'wet' look you see sometimes. Add to that that the trims felt smooth, non greasy and dry I was a happy bunny. a>

Autoglym - Bumper & Trim Gel

A 10p ish blob of the gel was applied to a clean sponge applicator, this ones a bit looser in consistency so it was hard to dispense just the right amount but you get the idea. This was then applied to the wheel arch plastics 1st. Doesn't last particularly long. It is a product that is worth applying, curing and then protecting. Park your car in a garage when at home and try and park it in a shaded area when you’re away from home. The gel does not contain colouring or dye so can be used to restore all unpainted plastics to their original colour.

As you know if you have worked on a Mini before the wheel arch and side skirt trims are a right pain to get looking good and more importantly staying looking good. For the purposes of this review I am using the best and possibly most difficult candidate for a trim dressing, Mrs P's Cooper. Look at ceramic coating your car as it offers excellent protection against the harmful UV rays that damage your car’s trim. Why should I care?

You can see by the little 50/50 shot below how much of a drastic effect on the trims the dressing had and you will also notice alot of high points where it had been over applied in places, definitely a difficult one to get perfect. So onto the product.... Bumper and trim dressings have been around for a while and whilst they are not one of the vital components when we clean our car they can make the difference between an average finish or a really good finish. You must have seen cars with washed out trim that is bleached by the sun and must agree that it really detracts from the look so a trim dressing is a really important part of our armoury.
