Malco Epic Revive Nu Plastic Trim & Cladding Restorer - Restores Faded and Dried Out Plastic/Vinyl and Rubber Back to Black or Gray Finish / 16 Oz (199816)

After years of using different (but same) products I figured I'd give it a go.Unlike everything else I've tried, this stuff actually works.Importantly, it doesn't bleed or wash off and it doesn't attract dust when dried.Depending on the surface and exposure, you may require more than one coat, some areas on my Nissan took 3 coats. Thankfully, this stuff builds, and each coat gets progressively easier and uses less product. Once you're finally there, you're there - for months! Fantastic product, don't let the price chase you away, it's worth every dime.You could easily spend this much on regular, so-called 'magic' formulas in a year and be doing nothing but waste hours of your time for a temporary (at best) fix.In Florida heat and sun, I'm approaching the 4 month mark without touching it and it still looks great... compare that to nearly weekly applications of other junk and do the math. Comparatively, this stuff is an absolute bargain!

This stuff is great and long lasting. Have use other products such 303, Stoner, etc. None even came close to Malco. A little goes a long way. Think this bottle will last me years, maybe.Recommend you clean surface well before use. Second application sometimes needed for better appearance and increase longevity.

I tried this Nu Plastic restorer based on YouTube reviews which I am generally skeptical of. It has exceeded my expectations and has far surpassed very other product I have used for plastic car trim. This is a second order as I have almost used all of the the original purchase. I used it on a pickup truck that has a lot of plastic trim that was beginning to show signs of weathering. It restored it to its original dark black color with an appealing sheen and was not overly glossy. It is easy to apply and provides an even appearance with no streaking. It was still providing good coverage when I reapplied it a year later. I now use it on all black plastic, including my RV propane tank cover that was heavily weathered with amazing results. I think its a great product.

Wow did this product work.I used it on 3 vehicles and all 3 look great now.

Works well for what it is intended for

Little over a year and the plastic on my car still looking great. While it dries quickly it’s best to let it fully cure for 48 hours before contact with water.ScottHD was right, this is the best!

Excellent product. Why only 3 stars? Zero warning about getting this product on anything OTHER than plastic. This product should clearly have a warning label on the bottle. If not cleaned immediately and thoroughly with soap and water, this product will leave a NASTY, hard-to-remove, stain on your paint and/or glass. Simply wiping any excess away that may get on your cars paint and/or glass is not good enough. Wash it off thoroughly! I now project that I'll have to perform about four months of Saturday car washes until this product eventually dissapears. For one who loves to wax their car often, I'm now prevented from waxing my car until this product disappears (can't wax over it). This aside, yes, the product does work extremely well. However, after 7 weeks, the product (and appearance) is beginning to decline greatly to the point of original condition and appearance. After this experiment, I've decided to forego any of these plastic restoration products and opt for a permanent solution - paint. Surfaces I've previously tried to renew with products such as this one. I'm now painting - and suggest you do too. Clean & dry the plastic surface, mask off the area with masking tape and newspaper, spray with Dupli-Color Adhesion Promoter, and finish with black semi-gloss paint for plastic. Semi-Gloss is PERFECT!I've painted 80% of the areas of my car so far (the plastic areas you would normally apply a restoration product such as this one) and the results are FANTASTIC! The plastic looks exactly like the day the car was made. ... and the results are permanent. Trust me, it's worth a couple weekends to get awesome, PERMANENT results.

"ScottHD" did a 20-something month longevity test on YT and this stuff won. Our cars are garaged so we're hoping for even longer. We used foam brushes to apply and did 2 SUVs... I think we used about an ounce and a half! This stuff goes very far. The bottle is practically still full. It's also held well in the foam brushes without dripping. So it was easy to cut the trim without getting it on paint/etc. We found it took graying rubber and restored it to dark black after 2 applications and letting it cure overnight. On vinyl trim it was a single coat application. There was some trim starting to show striping. On that we massaged it in using a microfiber and small circular motion, the striping was gone. If you leave it on wet and let it cure overnight, the finish will be glossy. It is good to LIGHTLY go over it with a lint free microfiber to level it if you happen lay on too much. But in general it's very forgiving. The gloss level can be easily knocked down with microfiber to tune the finish to desired gloss level or if matte is preferred. Awesome stuff!! 5 star.
