Thanks John, I used Solution Finish on my misses 13-year-old Mini's trim just like you and she loved the results. You need a second coat though if they are badly faded. I have considered putting a topper with Gtechniq C4 on top for the water beading.

Surfex APC at 50/50 solved it for me after I'd got Autoglym HD sealant on the trim. I'm sure other APCs would also do the job, but that's just what I had to hand at the time. I'm seriously considering dumping sealants that leave a white residue and returning to a brand of Carnuba paste wax that doesn't show on trim despite that I'll have to use it every 8 to 12 weeks, but that's just personal preference.

John, I’ve made plastic parts for Aston, Bentley, Range Rover and they generally use poly prop which is not porous it’s the finish they have on the tooling that gives it the appearance of porous. 30 years as a polymer engineer 👍

this is great. I believe you, I think these trims are non pourous as well. But Ive seen like trim on vans that felt like rough and dry and the polish was literally anchorered in so I dont think pourous plastic does exist? dont know maybe no pourous but lots more texture?
@Magnum61296

@@ForensicDetailing porous at a molecular level, but it’s usually different levels of ‘martex’ Finnish on the tooling which the polish will adhere too and makes it hard too remove. If car makers used better plastics with additives it would be a lot better but they don’t because of cost 👍

I finished with Meguiars Black Trim restorer because that's what I bought, so I can't really comment on the 'Solution Finish' mentioned here, but looks great, maybe next time I'll use some masking tape:)!
