Stupid window trim
Gah, I'm a fairly accomplished auto detailer, I've got tons of experience with Zaino, more advanced sealants and have used Optimum Opti Coat 2.0 with great success, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the stupid rubber window trim on the X1 not to look like it's spent years in the Mohave. Anyone have any luck with this stuff?
It just looks really oxidized, sort of bubbled and off color. I've tried treating areas with Einszett Gummi Pflege and 303 protectant, but it still looks awful. I'm debating taping off the paint and hitting it with a bug brush, but will probably try a few cleaners like P21s APC first, but know those will likely remove the sealant, so I'd like to avoid this approach until I need to do a ground up detail.
My previous BMW's haven't had this issue, did I just get a car with sub standard trim? I may swing by the dealer to check out other X1's. There's another X1 near me that parks outside, I may go spy on his trim after work with the dog as cover...
