Faded grey plastic on bumpers, mirror caps and window surrounds makes a car look older than it is.
Faded grey plastic on bumpers, mirror caps and window surrounds makes a car look older than it is. The cause is UV exposure and wash chemicals that pull the oils from the plastic. For owners in North York, we restore the black at your driveway or garage, with a cleaning step first, because dressing over dirt never lasts.
We scrub the plastic with a trim cleaner and a stiff brush to remove old dressing, wax residue and road film, then let it dry completely. A masked edge protects the paint around it. We then apply a trim restorer, which deepens the colour and bonds to the plastic, and wipe off the excess for an even, satin finish.
Two types of products exist: dye-based restorers that darken quickly but fade over months, and coating-based ones that last longer and handle rain and car washes. We explain the difference and match it to your car and budget. Owners around Jane and Finch often ask for the longer-lasting option before winter, when salt and slush attack unprotected trim.
Trim restoration will not fix cracked, warped or sun-chalked plastic that has lost its texture, and we will say so up front. It works best on trim that is faded but intact. A restoration visit is usually under two hours, and it pairs well with an exterior detail or a sealant application. Ask us if you are unsure which category your trim falls into.

North York combines condo towers along the Yonge corridor with underground garages, rows of detached and semi-detached homes with driveways in Willowdale, Don Mills and Bayview, and many townhouse complexes, so we adapt to a driveway, a visitor stall or a garage level.
Salt and slush spray up from the 401 and Allen Road through winter, coating lower panels and rocker areas with a stubborn grey film. Spring pollen from the mature trees in neighbourhoods like Willowdale settles on paint, and construction dust follows the many condo builds.
Crossing North York to reach a shop means sitting on the 401 or Yonge Street, and many condo owners have no practical place to wash a car. Mobile detailing comes to your driveway, garage or workplace and removes the drive and the wait.
We regularly work in Wilson Heights, Hillcrest Village and Jane and Finch, and every other part of North York.
