As a car enthusiast, I’m always on the hunt for products that not only enhance the appearance of my vehicle but also protect its surfaces. I recently tried the Chemical Guys a dressing designed for vinyl, rubber, and plastic surfaces, and here’s my honest review:

Performance: This product truly delivers on its promises. The finish it leaves on the vinyl and rubber surfaces of my car is outstanding. It gives a deep, rich shine that revitalizes the look of older and faded parts. The best part is, it’s genuinely non-greasy and dry to the touch, which means no residue on my hands or clothes after application.

Longevity: I was impressed by how long the shine lasts. Even after a few weeks and a couple of car washes, the surfaces still look freshly treated. It seems to have some protective qualities as well, repelling dust and dirt more effectively than untreated surfaces.

Ease of Use: Application is a breeze. Just a small amount goes a long way, and it spreads evenly without much effort. It’s user-friendly, even for those who aren’t professional detailers.

Value for Money: Given the quality and the amount needed per application, I find this product to be well-priced. It’s a great investment for anyone looking to maintain or enhance the look of their car’s interior and exterior trim.

Overall Experience: The Chemical Guys is a fantastic product for anyone looking to protect and beautify their car’s vinyl, rubber, and plastic surfaces. It offers a superb balance of performance, ease of use, and value for money. I highly recommend it to both casual car owners and auto detailing enthusiasts alike.

 First let me start off by saying I prepped the Surface by cleaning it with soap and water and using isopropyl alcohol then treated the surface with a sponge and the product. It looked great, it conditioned the plastic bumper trim on my car and took away that faded look making it look new and shiny. I allowed it to 24 hours to dry before getting it wet and then it rained two days after application. When the rain stopped some areas of the rear bumper looks like they did prior to application and you could see the faded plastic rain drips and faded streak like patterns downward where the product did not hold up. The inner trim of the doors still looks amazing a week later. I also used it on the interior Dash and the trim on the side mirrors but I used f11 before I use the chemical guys on the side mirrors and it seemed to hold up better than just the Chemical Guys product alone. I’m going to try to use the f11 and then the Chemical Guys on the bumper to see if that works better. I’m giving it the four stars because it was easy to apply, did make the plastic look better, did not affect the paint on the areas of the car that I got it on it was easy to wipe off and in some areas of the car it held up just not the rear bumper against the water and rain. I also applied it to the tires and even through the rain the tires look great. Definitely follow the instructions on wiping off the excess product with a damp microfiber cloth and then with a dry microfiber cloth for a longer lasting effect.

Just tried this yesterday as I become a lab tech, Chemical Guy product user. Pleasant smell, ease of use…I see why this stuff is being purchased in bulk. It can go quickly…I’ll be ordering some again soon as I work through my first and second uses. It makes washing & protecting effortless. Final results were impressive for a nice semi matte sheen. It’s exactly what I was looking for it to do.
