Jeep Grand Cherokee with tons of clad;what to use

[ziggo99]

So Monday I'm going to be detailing a Jeep GC with a lot of glad. The plastic is a light grey color. I can't remember what color is was from the factor; I'm guessing black. What product would you recommend for this? I was thinking either Mother's Back to Black or Gold Class High Endurance Tire Gel, since it works well on my plastic flaps on my car.

Not the exact one, but it's close.

I would use Trim Detailer because that product is designed for that sort of plastic's.

Gold Class Trim Detailer (Consumer) or M40 (professional line) would be great candidates for the job.

I have to say M40 works great with that kind of plastic trim/ bumper. So M40 gets my vote. But since its water based it wont last so long. So id go with endurance gel as well as weird as that sounds. lol

M40 or All Season Dressing will work great.

I'll throw in a vote for All Season Dressing.

M40/ASD/GCTD

I use all three, Our Neon (Dodge/Jeep et al) responds better to ASD while our Yukon trim likes to soak up GCTD and M40.....

Can't beat GCTD or ASD though.....M40 is not very long lasting, a few washes and have to reapply.

Well, it's a little too late to order than for Monday. I'll look for the GCTD today, if Autozone or Advanced Auto Parts carry it.

Good luck. In the future think about getting some All Season Dressing. I think it is a great product.

My wife's Ford Escape has similar cladding and bumpers. I like the finish (matte / low shine) that M40 gives but I would like something a little more economical since there's so much plastic on that vehicle. What type of finish would I get with ASD give? I'm not all that concerned about the finish lasting a long time since the plastic gets treated everytime I wash the car.

.....What type of finish would I get with ASD give? I'm not all that concerned about the finish lasting a long time since the plastic gets treated everytime I wash the car.

In my experience, ASD can be left on either Matte or Glossy, I apply it liberally and let it soak in then wipe off, then final wipe.....

It's pretty glossy but you'll just have to see.

I like it and I don't normally like my trim too glossy as I live in a rural area and dust is a huge factor in my area.
