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 Vaughan, 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 Weston Downs 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.

Vaughan is largely detached and semi-detached homes with driveways and garages in Woodbridge, Maple, Kleinburg and Thornhill, with townhouse complexes and a growing number of condo towers at the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre and along Highway 7, so we adapt to driveways, visitor lots or garages.
Salt and slush from Highways 400 and 407 and Highway 7 build up on lower panels in winter, and construction dust from ongoing development coats paint. Spring pollen and rural-edge dust and mud near Kleinburg and Nashville show up on cars quickly.
Vaughan covers a big area, and the 400 and 407 can be slow at rush hour, so a trip to a shop eats time. Mobile detailing comes to your driveway, condo garage or office and fits around your schedule.
We regularly work in Glen Shields, Vaughan Grove and Weston Downs, and every other part of Vaughan.
