I was lucky enough to be one of the ones that got the new DP line of aerosol products sent to them! I just used the following last weekend for the first time. Anytime I use a new product I try to use it under varying conditions before I form a solid impression about it. Here are my initial thoughts on the Trim detailer.

I was my truck and noticed that the Autofiness Revive that I applied a few weeks ago was pretty faded. Time for a boost of shine and protection.
Side steps before
One section after a quick spray
Finished the rail and removed the tape, this was about 30 minutes later, notice how its still not dry.
I thought I would give the trim detailer a test on my tonneau cover that was treated at the same time as my side steps
Before
After
Tape pulled, again about 30 mins later, still not dry
I didnt wipe either of these sections as I wanted to see what kind for shine it had, what I did notice is that it took a VERY long time for the trim detailer to dry. Im not sure if something in the previous product was left behind that kept the DP from soaking in or what it was. Here are shots from these sections 2 days later, I never wiped them just to see how long it would take to dry
As you can see, lots of dust, bugs, ect has collected.
I intended to clean these areas with an APC then retest, Im not giving up on this product yet. I also intend to spray and wipe to see what kind for shine is left behind. From a few other reviews that I have read this doesnt seem to be a common problem.
It did rain on it a little, seems to have held up well after the small rain shower to boot.
Ill report back when I try this product again.
