The contrast between your car's paint and the rubber, vinyl, plastic and chrome trim, are the details that set your car apart. For bright metal surfaces, I recommend Luster Care Polishes, Auto Wenol or P21S Multi-Surface Finish Restorer to add depth and brilliance. Luster Care is the best polish I have found for chrome, aluminum, and stainless steel.
Black body and trim moldings should be dark, crisp, and clean. If the moldings are in good condition, use 303 Aerospace Protectant or Meguiar's #40. Meguiar's #40 has cleaners to dissolve wax residues and grime. They both offer a nice finish. If the moldings are sun-faded, abused or neglected, use Forever Black to restore the trim's black color. 303 Aerospace Protectant and Meguiar's #40 are penetrating dressings. Forever Black is a permanent dye.
Next, to remove wax residues from emblems, logos, panel breaks and crevices, use a soft detail brush sprayed with Meguiar’s Final Inspection or Eimann Fabrik Clear Pearl.
Finally, to give a quick sparkle to plastic tail light lenses and Plexiglas headlight covers, use a shot of Plexus. Plexus is a spray polish made for plastics. It works great as a protectant and polish on clear-coated wheels, too!
