Review - Chemical Guys VRP

[PRND[S]]

I was near one of the Chemical Guys retail locations last week and stopped in while I was in the area. I wound up getting their Natural Shine Satin Shine Dressing, which worked out well for my needs (soft interior plastics like the dash and door cards). Goes on easy, doesn`t leave the surface feeling greasy and has a nice look to it. The dash in my Golf R is a mid-gray soft textured plastic that normally looks dry and dusty even when it has been freshly cleaned, it is now somewhat darker and has a satin sheen to it. The UV protection should also be an asset. It did leave behind a "dry cleaning"-like smell for a couple of days, but that is gone now.

Quick update: I saw my brothers car today. The dressing is on it`s last legs. So calling it at 3 weeks.


I am going to pay it forward and pass this along to another forum member.

Here are my requirements to send this out to some one.

-Member must be in the lower 48 states so that I can cover the shipping costs

-Member must have more than 300 posts. An exception can be made.

PM me if interested.

I wonder how it compares to: BLACKFIRE All-In-One Trim & Tire Protectant? I am about to place an order for one or the other. The blackfire is good for engine coating and this is the reason I am interested in purchasing it besides trim around the vehicle.

That is about what I get out of it. Maybe next go-round will be looking into a tire coating.

Already use tire coatings on my personal cars. I only gave this a go to review it per the request of Meghan at Autogeek. I rarely use tire gels on my personal cars anymore.

I have had success with Tuf shine and Mckee`s tire coating. Mckee`s just came out with a new formula to give a little more gloss. I just got the new formula one but I have not had a chance to try it.

Cant go wrong with either one. Get the one that costs less.

Have you used the tire coating on rubber out side of tires like the rubber trim of window seals

I have not.

I have not.

Would you be willing to do a test as I don`t have any tire coatings to try myself

Hmm I will consider it. I don`t have a lot of rubber trim on my cars.

I had reread this and think the comment on the label is that Chem Guys is a lifestyle...makes you wonder.
