First off :welcome



To answer a couple of your questions go to this page (www.properautocare.com/carfabcarpro1.html) . It has the fabric protector (303,Eimann) and cleaners (303,Eimann,Eagle One).



As for the black trim first try giving them a good cleaning and then try some Mothers Back to Black (works very well) or some 303. If that doesn`t work you could paint them or try and dye them. Check out this link (www.properautocare.com/reswhitstain.html) for some products that will help.

:welcome To get back your original paint`s luster and shine, you will need to compound, polish, and wax.



Yes, Scotchguard does come in a can that you can buy from your local auto store. But, I highly recommend 303 if you want to get those stains out of your carpet. You should also be able to get 303 from your local auto supply store. As Guinnesspounder said, Mother`s Back to Black is recommended to get your black trim back to it`s original color.



Hope this helps!:xyxthumbs

If your trim is discolored or `blotched`, I`d use a dye (like ForeverBlack) to re-color. Then regularly cover with a protectant such as Mothers Back-to-Black or 303 Aerospace Protectant. Remember to clean the trim very well, before using any dye. ;)
