The gel does not contain colouring or dye so can be used to restore all unpainted plastics to their original colour. Use on external plastics, vinyl and rubber, including molded plastic bumpers, grilles, mirror cases, moldings, wheel arch trims, door handles, vinyl roofs, rubber bumpers, spoilers and mud flaps. So onto the product.... Bumper and trim dressings have been around for a while and whilst they are not one of the vital components when we clean our car they can make the difference between an average finish or a really good finish. You must have seen cars with washed out trim that is bleached by the sun and must agree that it really detracts from the look so a trim dressing is a really important part of our armoury. The product arrives in a rather nice white PET bottle with the usual Autoglym branding on it which really cannot be mistaken for anything else. You can see by the little 50/50 shot below how much of a drastic effect on the trims the dressing had and you will also notice alot of high points where it had been over applied in places, definitely a difficult one to get perfect.DW has followed the Manufacturers Instructions and accepts no responsibility to any circumstances arising from any member using these products or following this test " A: Bumper and Trim Gel can be used to rejuvenate all external unpainted plastic and rubber trim however it is a dressing and so would not be a permanent fix.

So it transforms and protects plastics and rubber which sounds good to me so lets see how it performs. impressions were how nice it felt to apply, very smooth indeed and also how little was needed to finish the section, it wasn't long at all before the whole arch was finished without recharging the applicator. Unlike any other product we have used and for that reason alone, it has its place as it is capable of that which others cannot. Doesn't last particularly long. It is a product that is worth applying, curing and then protecting. If you favour a gel type dressing and want one which gives you a non greasy OEM finish to your textured plastic trims then Autoglym Bumper and Trim gel might well be worth a look.A: Absolutely. If your soft top is vinyl you can use Bumper and Trim Gel to dress and protect the surface. If you have a fabric effect vinyl roof use Convertible Soft Top Clean and Protect Kit instead. As you know if you have worked on a Mini before the wheel arch and side skirt trims are a right pain to get looking good and more importantly staying looking good. From what I know the trims on a Mini are one of the hardest trims I have seen to get right and Autoglym Bumper and Trim gel did a bang up job of getting them looking sharp again so I really can't have too many complaints in that respect. The gel smells nice, is easy to use, easy to remove from paintwork and has lasted well over a week now and is still looking freshly applied. div>
