Back to Black (cleaner)

[BlackReign]

So, it's been some time since I've been able to show my car the love it needs. The cowl is starting to gray and look bad.

Is that Mother's Back to Black Cleaner worth a crap? Or is there something else out there that will provide a bit of restore as opposed to just covering?

CarPro Dlux...

The mothers is junk, I have a bottle of it on the shelf that was used once and put away

Back to Black is junk.

I heard Forever Black (dye) works well, or just take the trim off and hit it with a couple coats of trim paint.

I use Carpro Perl diluted 1:3, switched from Ultima Tire+Trim Guard and i like it a lot better so far.

This. I can get it free and I don't bother.

I've started using Adams In N Out spray and it seems to be working well. I'm not thrilled that it's aerosol, but it does get the trim black & isn't greasy like the Mothers crap is.

Anything you guys using that lasts a few washes?

I've been using the Chemical Guys Silk Shine and it looks fantastic, but I have to reapply every time I wash.

I use B2B as a dressing, it will not restore though.

I have not used this but it has good reviews. Its not cheap either.

I've got to find something as my rockersand front spliters could use some help.

Wolfgang trim works great and lasts awhile

I started using this recently, and no oily residue, and makes the black on my Roush splitters look like new, havent had it long enough to say how long it holds up, but it rained today, and it held up to rain

Good stuff but it doesn't last long

 

[Bullitt 3309]

I use Carpro Perl diluted 1:3

I use this as well, same ratio. Looks good and last a while.

Thanks for all the replies. And just for the record, I've used the Back to Black dressing and found it to be crap, but was curious about the cleaner cause I read a couple of reviews that made is sound promising.

Thanks again.

Sorry I didn't see that part. I have used the Cleaner with good results. For the price point it is good. But keep in mind Mothers made the cleaner to work with the dressing. When I used the Back to Black cleaner to remove some polish/wax residue, I also removed that cleaner with an APC before using PERL to ensure a pure clean surface. Overall I think the cleaner is a good product and has a place on my crowded shelf.

I appreciate it, man....I have a feeling that most missed the "cleaner" part
