Black Wow Trim Restorer lives up to it's claims!
Product review by Terry Freiberg

    I wish I had a Nickel for every time a manufacturer told me their trim dressing/restorer lasts a month or more. They just don't! I speak from experience. I own most of them. I happen to have two vehicles with extensive black trim, a Mini Cooper and a Jeep. I've had these vehicles in two extreme climates; Florida with twice-daily monsoon rains and Arizona with oven-hot heat. I wash both vehicles every weekend and treat the black trim with one of a dozen different dressings I have in my detailing cabinet. Regardless of what I use, by mid-week, the black trim on my vehicles looks like crap.

    I'm here to tell you I finally found a product that really lasts. Black Wow Trim Restorer has me walking on sunshine! This trim restorer works on any color trim to restore a deep, natural, factory-fresh appearance that really does last for months! The Arizona sun doesn't bleach it out and Florida's daily rains won't wash it off. If you own a Mini Cooper, Honda Element, Jeep or SUV with extensive trim or accent moldings, get this product.

    Black Wow Trim Restorer is not a dye. It is a super concentrated, wipe-on liquid that restores faded and white-stained trim on contact. There is no need to let the product dry or cure.

Restore dull, weathered trim on contact!

Perfect for truck bumbers.


Note:
The phrase "super-concentrated" really does apply to this product. It takes less than a pea-sized amount on the foam applicator to work magic. The 4 oz. bottle will last a long time even treating multiple cars.


Black Wow actually beads water!



Nit Picks: This isn't so much a nit-pick as a caution, You should avoid getting Black Wow on paint. It won't harm the paint, but it's difficult to remove off the paint. My recommendation is to mask off the trim with painter's tape before applying Black Wow.

Directions: Wipe trim with a 50/50 solution of alcohol and water or a prep cleaner such as Wurth Clean Solve. Apply a drop of Black Wow to the foam applicator and massage into the trim. After all trim is treated, wipe with a dry, lint-free cloth to remove any excess product. Detailing trick: Now go back and wipe the trim with a damp cloth or sponge. This will insure a uniform, rich luster.

Below is a short video from the makers of Black Wow, showing the product in action.
