Can Klasse AIO be used on smooth and/or textured black plastic trim? How about Klasse SG?
Can Klasse AIO be used on smooth and/or textured black plastic trim? How about Klasse SG?
as usual a test spot is best
but I have used it for years on my dad`s jeep
it does a great job on the plastic trim
I read in the "8 day, Ferrari" thread, he used AIO on the plastic trim. Just wanted to make sure i didnt mis-read.
I`ve read AIO`s description and it said "safe on trim." I thought it meant if you accidently got some on the trim, not apply on the trim on purpose lol.
Thanks man
i`ve used KAIO on everything
plastic trim/windows/bumpers etc
but for KSG is only for paint, and more specifically, paint prepped with KAIO
I`ve used KAIO on smooth plastic trim with great results....haven`t tried on textured plastic.
Thanks guys.
Would it be wipe on wipe off for the plastic trim? Or work it in to get the oxidation out?
Guys, are we talking about smooth plastic or textured plastic?

I work the KAIO to clean/remove oxidation, usually applying with cotton terry, but I buff it off before it dries. And I use W-O-W-O with the KSG (which I usually don`t do otherwise) as it seems to result in a more uniform look (i.e., less chance of streaking). Thin thin thin with the KSG, even more important than when using it on paint.
I would be a bit careful to not let it dry on the textured stuff, any excess can be a PIA to get out of the lower depths of the texture (but it`s never been a *huge* issue IME).

Thanks, Accumulator. Can we talk about the benefits of using these products on plastic? What are the benefits?

So I`d be kinda careful if you want to try it...Originally Posted by tom p.
*IMO* the primary benefits are:
-durability; no need to redo after every wash (or every dozen washes)
-can be quickly/easily refreshed with the appropriate QD or spray sealant
-no running/streaking in rain
-no product transfer (e.g., onto car covers)
-no dust/dirt attraction/retention
-decent or better looks (no, I *will NOT* say it necessarily looks as good as a good ERV dressing in all cases)
This is turning out to be a very informative thread. Thanks all for the info!
