Well, it's raining and it was dark when I got to my car after work. Pictures will have to wait until tomorrow.

I used meguiars nxt tech wax on my black Tc and wasn't all that impressed. What's the best wax I can get that's reasonably priced?

I got an all-in-one wash + wax product on the black plastic trim above the wheel fenders of my BRZ (was an accident that I used such a product), and in result the trim faded and the material has become dry. What products do you recommend.

Here's a pic of the trim on the BRZ: http://i.imgur.com/pg2QcOl.jpg Zoom in and see black plastic is unprotected and faded and has some wax stains on it.

Wash product was this stuff. I don't like it, poor review; I didn't realize it was a wash + wax product.

I need a new wash product too!! *edit* I think I'm going to buy this wash kit because: awesome.

that's great it could be that you didn't take off all the left over polish

would love to see close up shots.

but that being said you can use this plastic cleaner to get the trim cleaned up.

1z einszett plastic deep cleaner

spray on a towel and wipe the trim.

Cool thanks. After cleaning, I think I'll dress and condition it with 303 Aerospace Protectant https://detailersdomain.com/303-Aero...-oz_p_872.html
