J.Kempster Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Hi Guys/Gals, The snow has finally melted away here in Louisville, KY so now the time has come to clean my wife's 2017 Toyota Rav4. I made a bone head mistake after we purchased her car and applied sealant to most of the trim. I just had to clean it at midnight the day we bought it! This caused white spotting throughout the trim. I used various cleaners and degreasers to try and remove with little to no effect at each cleaning. After cleaning all four wheels, I applied Tire and Rubber cleaner to the trim to see what might happen. WOW! 85-90% of the sealant was removed in just the initial cleaning. I am new to Adam's products but I already have a favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMAN024 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 (edited) Hi Jeff. You can also apply some VRT to the trim and that should help remove the rest of the sealant. Tip: Next time, if you apply the VRT to the trim before sealing the paint, any residue will simply wipe off the plastic trim.

falcaineer Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 TRC is great stuff. Did you try (Eco) APC? That should also remove any residue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.Kempster Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share Posted January 23, 2018 Thanks guys. It 95% removed, just hard to reach places left. I don’t have VRT or EcoAPC yet. This spring I plan to coat the car with Adams, looking forward to growing my collection. Rich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the past ive hated having to go back and clean small spots of wax residue on plastic trim. After reading several testimonials im sure this will take care of that headache.

ZMAN024 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 (edited) Perhaps with the release of the Pro Line the 32oz bottles will be available again. We shall see........ Edited February 3, 2018 by ZMAN024 Mazzdog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
