Kinda pricey but I've heard it is very durable. TIA

oooouch, pricey isn't the word for it.....that's sorta expensive.

I just started using this stuff....it really rocks. It's more like a plastic conditioner than a cheap watery coating. Has the consistency of hand lotion.

The black plastic MINI parts have a very nice sheen to them and it lasts for up to 3-4 washings too.

I got if from a MINI repair shop in Worcester, MA - www.greasysgarage.com




Took this photo of my MINI the other day, it has been over two weeks since application and three washings so far.....

Your trim certainly looks good in the picture.

Zaino Clear seal here

I just use Zaino Clear Seal on everything. It works great on the paint as well as all of the black trim parts. I even use it on the front air spoiler under the car. It is also a little expensive but well worth the $$$$' just put it on and walk away. It dries to a great brilliant shine on the paint and a very clean black look on the black trim.
Your car sure looks great. I like the wheels. I really think most of these new products are all good. I just do not like "WAX" because the hot Florida sun melts it off way to fast.

Yep it's not a bad product..I know the guys that made it. It's similar to Black Wow. The bottle is bigger, but you need to use more.
