    Question I used too much Trim Restorer, how do I recover?

    While messing around, I had a applicator, it had way to much TR on it. Part of my dash (a BMW, sorta beige-brown color) on the passenger side has a bunch of build up and turned very light, almost a dull white.

    When the applicator was a little dryer, it seemed to work fine, the rest of the dash and doors look great.

    I`ve used TR many times in the BMW but this time user error has caused a bit of a problem.

    I`ve tried wiping using a damp (water) terry towel, it seems to be diminishing but is taking quite some time.

    Any/all suggestions are appreciated!

    TIA

    Hey PR--

    If you did it this weekend, you sure had some nice weather for it....even hot!!

    With the liquidity of TR, I use a small foam painters brush from Home Depot. If I have to apply more often, that is better than getting a mess. I always, always buff after I have completed the TR job on a client`s vehicle.

    Trim restoration has always taken me a good bit of time to do....I think that`s just the card we draw when we decide to do it :dunno
