    Robert DiTerlizzi`s Blackfire Total Trim & Tire Sealant review

    My mobile rig is a 2000 GMC Savana van with 335,000+ miles on it. It was owned previously by a painting contractor who drove it hard and never, I mean never cleaned it! When I first got it I gave it a complete cleaning inside and out! Not a full blown correction detail but a good deep cleaning that was epic in itself!

    Today I decided to try to bring some life back to the black plastic mirrors and surrounding trim.







    So I started out with a deep cleaning using BLACKFIRE All-In-One All Purpose Cleaner







    The APC left it clean and grease free





    next step was to apply the BLACKFIRE Total Trim & Tire Sealant 16 oz.



    I applied a quarter size amount of product to a microfiber towel



    I lightly rubbed the product around the mirror and the surrounding trim



    After covering the whole area, I wiped it with a clean, dry microfiber towel



    I applied a second coat and then wiped the whole assembly till dry.
    Heres the final results









    It left a silky smooth feel to the otherwise dry brittle feeling plastic and a nice black sheen with no greasy residue!
    Overall I was very happy with the results of both the APC and Trim Sealant and highly recommend you give them a try!

    Nice result. Now to see how long it lasts.

    I heard micro removes too much (product) from plastic/vinyl etc. Would cotton have been a better choice, or am I nuts?

    Nice job.

    This is great on textured trim but not so great on rubber. Had the same experience of it not working on rubber for a third time on a different car.

    It is a great product. I used that on my Sorento`s black plastic and it lasted for about 4 months for me. I recently put DLux on it for longer term.

    How would this compare to Wolfgang trim sealant?
