    I did not expect to see such a huge difference among the brands. All did provide some hydrophobic and appearance improvements and first but exposure to direct sunlight and cleaning products had a huge impact. I bought all of the products tested. So, thanks for supporting the channel and I'm looking forward to reading you comments and video ideas! Thanks and best regards, Todd

Half or more of youtube gets it the other way round: yadda yadda yadda blather blab blab info blab blab yadda blather yadda yadda. Whereas here we get 99% INFO! (most of the blather is from the words of the makers of these products).

    Nice and dark look with a shine….

      Instead of the Cerakote headlight restoration, wet sand with 600 grit to remove the oxidized clear coat, then 1200 to reduce the scratches to a haze. Mask everywhere but the headlight. Solvent wipe to remove dust and spray with a two part (2K) clear coat in a can from Eastwood, USC Spraymax, etc. Three light coats ten minutes apart.

    • @Nosfermarki
      @Nosfermarki Рік тому +2

      I watched this mostly because I did similar tests trying to find something that lasts and I was blown away by cerakote. I've seen some people say it turned their trim white/splotchy but I don't know if it was a reaction with the type of trim or if it wasn't applied correctly (if the trim was hot for example). For that reason I'd recommend testing in a hidden area before doing the whole car. I've used it on my Civic, an Elantra, and a GMC Acadia with excellent results. I actually just reapplied it on my Civic because it began to fade, but it did so just as evenly as when it faded originally. Plus it took almost exactly two YEARS to fade. I only use one wipe for my entire car so it's expensive per wipe, but not at a rate of 5 wipes a decade. I was worried about effectiveness after the remaining wipes sat in my garage for literal years, but the one I used worked just as well as when I bought it. Follow the instructions carefully and you'll be very happy with the results.

    One thing I found that works extremely well, and doesn’t end up leaving that white look is Amsoil silicone spray. I have tried some cheap silicone spray from normal auto parts stores, and it’s performance was not very good.
    The Amsoil silicone spray lasts a longs time. Only downside is it takes a while to apply. I’ve found it works best applied to a cloth, and wiping it on. Once applied though, you rarely need to reapply it to keep the deep black shiny look. I also apply it to rubber gaskets around doors, and windows. Also, you can spray it on rubber boots on your axles or tie rods to keep the rubber hydrated, and crack free.

      I've found you have to go over multiple times with 303 - sometimes as many as 4 passes to get a lasting black matte finish. It seems to soak into the plastic that first swipe. However it still protects even after 1 pass which is its main purpose at the end of the day - its just not the best trim restorer for longevity

    • @eppyz
      @eppyz 3 роки тому +49

      Don't be disappointed. 303 I have used for many years too. It is just a different type of product than many of the ones tested here. 303 is a preservative. Its meant to keep the rubber supple and pliable over the years. With continued use, the rubber will stay in very good shape. Whereas these other products are meant to restore plastics that are already beaten. So yes 303 won't really help rubber or plastics in poor condition. So if your looking for just the gloss and the new look for an old car 303 won't be your best choice. But if you have a new car or newer car, and apply 303 often, in 10 yrs your rubber will still look the same and still be pliable. I hope I am making sense? Just different type of products for different type of uses. Also, what I like about 303 is if it gets on the paint or glass by accident, it comes off very easily. Many of these other products used especially the ceramic products are a PITA to get off paint and glass.
