    I use "Meguiar's Gold Class Trim Detailer". I have an 07 D3. When I bought the car second hand in March this year, the first time we had a heavy dew the plastic panel under the winscreen went white, streaky & chalky. Once I put the Meguire's on it brought it back to black & looks fine. Now after a lot of rain it might become a little bit streaky but another quick coat & its back to black again. It also works on all the plastic trim, bringing it back to like new. Very easy to apply & I got it from Supercheap. I'm not trying to push this product, there is many other similar products out there. This is just the first one I tried & it works very well.

    Cheers,

    Murray

    I'm a big Maguiars fan as well. Their interior trim cleaner does wonders on the roof liner despite two kids grime. It also gets oil & food stains out of neck ties without leaving a discoloured patch. Cheaper than the dry cleaner!

    Dont laugh but in UK they have advocated using peanut butter spread. Actually tried it on my trim on 2008 Sport, it worked pretty well. The oil in the paste did the trick. The flies thought it was also good Cheap too

    The oil feeds the plastic and the paste cleans it. Works very well.

    Dont ever use that rubbish....

    Once you use it you cant stop using it or the part will then crack, split or peel...

    Its terrible stuff.. Use it only on vehicles you are detailing to move on soon.

    Use Mothers / Meguires... Both make a bumper / trim protectant that is far better

    Cant say Im a big fan of Armour All.
    Use Autoglym religiously long before the D4 can along (the British connection I mean) and still use it now.

    It is expensive but best results Ive seen particularly the silicon-free plastic/vinyl product. Leaves a non-slippery film free finish looking like new without the "i just armouralled the crapola out of my car to make it look new again" look.

    There are many YouTube videos and articles about it. It's known to work very well.

    We're also talking about using it externally, not internally.
