    Yeah, the one thing about Stoner Trim Shine is that it will attract dust.

    Yup - but they're all the wrong color
    The one that looks like it just rolled off the assembly line belongs to CobraJet. The one that has an attitude is mine (I don't treat my cladding everyday like he does - mine hadn't been done for about a month).

    Yup - cladding is cladding.

    I just needed and excuse to post a cool pic.

    Actually, contrast can make a huge difference in perception of color - that's my story & I'm sticking to it.

    Now I'm truly laughing out loud.........


    Back on Topic....I sometimes use Maguiars Tire Shine on mine if I want the shiny & wet look....but....it definately attracts dust & bugs when first applied....however...if you wash it off it looks pretty stout for at least a couple of weeks (ungaraged).

    Just after application:



    After washing & sitting outside for a period of time:

    I found something recently by accident. I was treating the Recarro's to some leather protectant. I oversprayed and hit some of the console. It looked so good, I continued the process on much of the interior. It's still looking great 3 weeks later.

    I'm not sure if I'd try it on the exterior cladding since it will collect dust & the Mother's B2B still works for me.

    BTW Bart - LMAO - U Da Man (second only to Moncha of course)

    That's what happened to me too when I was treating my Recarro's with Maguiar's Leather Foam Protectant/cleaner....I wound up putting it all over the dash and door panels and console and it seemed to dry to a shiny protectant instead of the greasy usual products (Armor All, STP, etc...).
