    Gyeon Trim and intricate trim pieces...

    Was gonna coat all the black plastic trim using Gyeon Trim; pieces are kinda intricate (for lack of a better word) and wondering best approach. Can certainly get to all the nooks and crannies using the foam tipped detailing sticks but it`ll likely take more time than it takes the Gyeon Trim to cure, possibly leaving the joyful uneveness that coatings can produce. Any tips/ideas? A job for Gyeon Can Coat instead If can coat can be used on plastic...not sure)?



    Thanks for any info/techniques you can provide.

    you`ll use more product, but foam paint sticks (brushes)

    Or fold a suede applicator into a small piece to use without the applicator block.

    Yeah, think I`ll try with foam paint stick w/ suede applicator wrapped around the end. Not gonna be efficient by any means but guess ya gotta do what ya gotta do.

    I`ve never used the Gyeon, but with Ultima T&TG+ I do some intricate bits with a BHB, the bristles get into the tight spots quite well and there was no uneveness (which I had wondered about).

    But would that deposit too much product for the Gyeon Trim?

    I don`t follow Gyeon products but it sounds like a coating and I typically air brush those areas with other coatings.

    I would use the cancoat, they don`t look like the need to be restored so can coat sprayed on and wiped off would be easier. An off label use to be sure,but works well.
