The problem with such finishes is that as soon as it rains you get drip marks on the plastic. Let us know how you get on.

Cleaned all the external plastic trims today with Gtechniq W5, and then applied Gtechniq C4........very pleased with the results, but it will be interesting to see if the finish lasts up to the advertised 2 year protection. The C4 was very easy to apply 👍👍

This may sound bizarre, but try using a carpet cleaning foam with a soft to medium brush on the side blades. Carplan carpet cleaner works fine.

Gyeon Q2 Trim does the job for me. 12 months between treatments and one bottle will last years. Easy to apply and makes the plastic look brand new.

Really recommend it!

I have just gone over all the black bits on the Macan. Wash and clean with IPA and applied Gtechnic T1 to all the black bits including the side blades. They came up OK. Still not sure why they are there as they won't prevent knocks off doors opening.
