How to Clean and RESTORE Plastic Fender Liners | Back to NEW!

In today’s video, Anthony demonstrates how to Restore Black Plastic Fender liners to a NEW OEM look! Wheel arch detailing is often overlooked, but can drastically improve the look of a vehicle! Anthony Compares 3 different products to restore faded plastic and the benefits of each! Solution Finish, Gtechniq C4, and Koch Chemie Plast Star!

Cleaning Fender liners may not be the most EXCTINIG thing to detail, but it can greatly improve the look of a vehicle. Plastic Fender liners can almost always be restored or improved, but carpet fender liners are a whole different beast. For today, our main focus is on restoring plastic and trim back to black. Anthony uses a combination of steam cleaning with all purpose cleaner and plenty of brush agitation. A pressure washer or hose can also be used, but we find that steam detailing is plenty suitable for this. These particular fender liners have NEVER been detailed, or even dressed for that matter. Plenty of stains and oxidation of the plastic have caused these to fade and turn white over time.

After a DEEP scrub with Koch Chemie Green Star and a Detail Factory Tire brush, Anthony rinses with steam and treats the surfacer with a 1:1 70% IPA and Distilled water Mix. From there, each Fender liner is restored with Solution Finish, Gtechniq C4 and KCX PSS. So which one looks best? Well, comparing the products, Anthony prefers the dark look of Solution Finish, but C4 and PSS provide a GREAT restoration as well. C4 will have added protection from the coating, and PSS will be easier to “touch up” from time to time. Overall, all THREE of these products are amazing for restoring car plastics back to black, so the choice is really up to preference.

As usual, we hope you enjoy these detailing tips and tricks and can apply them to your detailing regimen. Thanks for watching!
