Polish on black plastic trims

[AldoG420]

Hey guys , what is the best option to remove polish out the black trims? Thx

I use Autoglym Bumper Care which is a green gel. There are a number of 'Back to Black' type cleaners/polishes but you definitely need to wear gloves or your hands go the same colour!!

This stuff works pretty well as it gets the dirt off the black lower bumper sections, wheel arch, door and side step trims and I use it on our current fleet and previously on my E53...

It also keeps the water off.

Thank you .. I'll be getting some tomorrow .. I've tried back to black but after a couple of weeks u can c all the marks again.. I also heard of peanut butter ,apparently it works well too

Try Autoglym Intensive tar remover and brush it in throughly with an old toothbrush or similar. I've found that works well.

If you are asking about removing something from your plastic trim, then you want something like apc, diluted down, just spray on, agitate a little with a soft brush then wash off thoroughly, after this you can apply the bumper care previously mentioned, I always use a small piece of sponge to apply mine, more control and it soaks up the treatment and allows you to go further with a smaller amount of liquid, then just leave it a while and just gently wipe off any surplus, you don't have to buff it up.

No, not thick at all, with all the different products out there no one is supposed to know about all of them.
APC is basically an " all purpose cleaner" can be diluted to tackle different problems, I use meguiars.
