I finally made the time to get it done.
I've been a fan of Adams Polishes for many years....I'm not a detailer, just enjoy the process, and results, and have an Adams store location nearby.

Washed, then VRT on rubber trim (in case I got wax on it-it would wipe off easily) clayed, then Adams Buttery Wax. 303 Aerospace Protectant for the remainder of black bottom trim.

Wax is easy on/off, finished with a quick spray of Adams pink detail spray, mostly to ensure all wax was removed. My first time using the Buttery Wax, they say it lasts about 4 weeks, parked outside. It really needed it! Took about 4 hours.

Thank you to all who shared your previous posts and pics, answering my questions to at least get me started in the right direction. I really love the look of a nice ceramic coating...but for me, I needed something that I couldn't mess up, lol.

Vinyl, Rubber, and Tire ๐Ÿ™‚ many manufacturers have a product called something like this that works on all of those surfaces.

Looks great, but why post pictures of three different Mavs?

Ah, magic of Area51!
