Perfect video! My buddy just asked me for advice on this exact issue. Seeing you doing it and getting good results gives me the confidence to help him with his car! Thank you!

Adam's tire and rubber cleaner sprayed into a microfiber towel works fantastic!

This is an excellent vid. I will be stealing this technique to remedy trim issues. I use Protect All to dress exterior rubber and interior plastics. It is not greasy and helps level the color on faded trim. It is extremely versatile on all surfaces except cloth. A combination of Protect All and Meguiars Ultimate Fast Finish makes an incredible combo to protect leather surfaces. No more ceramic coating for me on leather. 👍

Might not be perfect, but this is 1000x than before. Well done.

Thank you for the video. I just tried this process with generic Magic Eraser from Amazon and Simple Green cleaner. It removed 90% of the spots and stains. I’m going to follow it up with Mothers Back To Black trim dressing.

you kiliing it chelsea keep grinding

Good practical advice. Well done!

I have a 2010 Camaro SS that gets this very bad from the oak trees over my driveway. I maintain my car fairly well, but we get so much rain in the summer here in Florida that it's a PITA washing the car to only have it rain 2 hours later. I found magic eraser works very well, but you have to tape off the paint near the trim to avoid scrubbing into it. Also need something to seal or treat the trim after scrubbing. Great job btw!

You are the Queen of car clean......Best wishes to your Subscribers and yourself from the UK. SW

I got a lot of that off with a power washer before.

Great video and useful tips. I like that you find unique techniques that are inexpensive.

Thanks for the advice. Can’t wait to try it

That's awesome! I am have 2007 honda ridgeline and living in south florida the weather is brutal so thank you for this tip!

To bring back the trim gloss, you could use Mother's Back-to-Black. I've used that in the past on trim that looked tired and it came back looking new and lasted for a good while before needing reapplication.

I have had a bit of luck with super clean with a small amount of Lysol quat and a magic eraser followed by a solution finish coating. It is effective but very slow going .

That was very interesting 😀 I have used the Magic sponge on a lot of things BUT not the car.... I intend to try it out, I love cleaning my car & the hints from everyone!! Go girl get into it and more information will be Great. 👏👏👏👏🇭🇲🇭🇲🇭🇲🇭🇲🇭🇲

That’s gotta be a Highlander. I own one(same color too) and have the same exact issue. Car looks brand new inside and out besides this trim. Hopefully this works!

New to your channel by far yours is the best !!! Car detailing channel great job!!!

Spray w silicone grease or 205 re seal to restore and protect against future damage, kind of like wax/lube after you clean it. WD 40 works in a pinch too

Thanks for this Chelsea. Exactly what I was looking for.

Superior products magic muscle 4:1 with a microfiber towel worked great for me

Nice work and great tips.

Cool! Really quality video and info.

I’d recommend taping off the paint when using a magic eraser. If your clear is thin due to the sun you might actually remove it! I speak from experience. ;-)

Tea tree oil works and will kill everything without messing up the trim. I applied twice and those spots are about 85% gone will do another treatment and then use a trim restorer.

Thank you, this is helpful.

I've been wet sanding the damaged rubber 1/4 panel window trims on the back doors of my Ford Fairmont EL. A lot of the rubber had holes in it and was peeling due to the harsh ultraviolet rays of the Queensland sun. I just used ordinary sandpaper circles from eBay.

thank you! this worked

Good job

Try a rubber cleaner like adams tire and rubber or a heavily diluted tire cleaner with a short pile microfiber.

I used scotchbrire and grease elbow and finish it with tyre or bumper blackened fir finishing , oh don't forget to open the window while doing it.

Good video! I watched it and went looking for something to try,Simple Green and a soft tooth brush followed by VPR did a decent job. My trim wasn't quite as bad as the one in the video but for now it looks good.

Great Video. I'll do this on my car

Good job. Good to see car care is not just a guy thing. Btw you’re obsessed like my mate :)

Wow you’re awesome Thanks for the tip

Hi all, My car is 4 months old , 2020 model . I park outside due to a lot of stuff being hoarded in our garage. I will need some time to get my garage cleaned. In the mean time, there a lot of dust, flowers from the tree parked under and dirt is collected between the car window trim and the car window. I have got my car manually cleaned. They did not get it. My car look old now. Please suggest a cleaning method or video for my car. Thanks!

You can also remove the trim to clean it most cars have a nut on the inner door or small fastener to remove and trim will slide off by pulling it backward off of the door I have the same material on my 03 Taurus Back to black will also remove the mold but it is time consuming .

I use spray nine for lots of stuff. But have to make sure it’s not too tight a space, the fumes. Oooooowwweeeeee!

Thank you! I am going to try this with Super Clean this weekend. Does anyone know if Cerokote Trim Coat will work on the rubber? Or it is only for hard, textured plastic?

Just researching what methods and solutions people use to get moss off of cars. So naturally came across this video. Just searched the web to try and find some other videos that use 'dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride' and I am inundated with health warnings and medical studies which warn of this product's usage... Other videos are saying just soapy water works.. might try that. Open to other suggestions on who to clean moss from a car.

thank you

How about using the harbor freight steamer?

A 2002 Kia Spectra has lots of black transfer from door weatherstripping. It gets on skin and clothes very easily. Any tips how to clean it and restore and protect?

What about the plastic trim above where you're repairing? The plastic part that's attached to your window that prevents water from dripping into the door (if that makes sense?) - the small thin plastic

What do you use on a sunroof where either water has be standing for a long period of time and all around the edges the glass is white or maybe it’s called oxidation? Thanks,Steve

Always learn something new when I watch your videos!

I Just bought the Chemical guys Trim Clean and The Trim Gel Hoping it Might Work On My Trim Pieces?...🤔😦

Does this stop the dirt coming off onto a micro fiber ?

JUST HIT IT WITH THAT 409!!!!!!! 😭😭😂

Will this method work on the larger trim right above it between the windows?

I just used a steamer with a brush and came off with hardly any work. I don't know if the steamer is bad for the paint or anything, but it sure took the gunk off.

"Hi Chelsea How Are You Doing, I Have A Question After You Cleaned The Trim With The Spray Nine and Magic Eraser What Type of Rubber Trim Protectant Did You Use To Bring back The Shine?..

Can you use any APC to go with the magic eraser?

Chelsea, would bathroom products from Home Depit such as Zep Mold and Mildew cleaner work?

what about make up foundation?

AT £20 A BOTTLE YOU COULD REPLACE ALL YOUR WINDOW TRIM FOR LESS

Great Tip! What year was this vehicle? I need to try this on my 13 year old vehicles. You could tape the painted area and feel better and be more aggressive on the rubber trim. Have you used Meguiars 39?, I just bought some and tried it on some exterior plastic faded trim that nothing made it change before, alcohol, alkaline degreasers nothing before I dressed it, since the dressing will be just a temporary fix fading back to ugly in a few weeks. After 3 weeks and no dressing, plastic is still black. It took no effort just rubbed it with MF towel and it changed color instantly. No clue if it will last but I may dress it before it fades again. Maybe you can try it and make a video? I think some of the rubber trim also has a clear coat and I wonder if once is removed or gone it may not be restored just cleaned and dressed frequently to keep it from getting so bad, it will need to be replaced. I tried to search about this a couple of years ago and could not find any information to clean/restore or fix it. Thanks for the video Chelsea it is good to see good results like the ones you had.

"magic eraser" is a simple sponge. Just saying. A common non-magic eraser titled sponge does exactly the same job.
