Ultima Tire and Trim Guard

[dfoxengr]

I`ve seen Accumulator mention he prefers this over something like 303 aerospace or 1Z trim protectant (both of which I have). What`s the reasonging and would I just be overlapping by buying the Ultima?

[Meticulous]

I love UTTG. It is a sealant/protectant and last a very long time on trim and tires. You must clean everything first with a light APC and then apply. It doesn`t wash off like other products. A little goes a long way and it is well worth the money.

would opti-seal work like UTTG on trim? I`ve got that too.

[Accumulator]

Yeah, I still love the stuff.` I`ve been refreshing it with ValuGard`s Fast Finish for a quickie touchup after a wash, and also with Garry Dean`s Beyond Infinity Sealant.


`


Note that such stuff is, IMO, a completely different approach than 303 and other dressings, which I do use upon occasion.`


`


Oh, and FWIW I do my pre-UTTG cleaning with Griot`s Rubber Prep (yeah, on hard plastics too), works *perfectly* IME.

thanks, got some on black friday deal and what I understand is that it`ll darken whereas opti-seal wouldn`t


`


for pre-clean I really like 1Z plastic cleaner or just higher dilution APC if not that dirty.

I just picked up some of this stuff over the black friday sales and am excited as hell to try it
