If your car’s plastic trim has gone dull, grey and chalky from UV exposure, road grime or constant washes, C4 is the solution. This isn’t just a “dress up” job. Gtechniq’s C4 forms a chemical bond with your exterior trim (plastic, vinyl, rubber) – becoming part of the surface, not just sitting on top. The result? Trim that looks “as new” again and stays like that. Key Features & Benefits Benefit Why It Matters Long-lasting protection (up to 2 years) You’ll spend less time redoing your trim; fewer re-applications. Natural finish, no grease or shine Keeps the original texture; avoids slippery or overly glossy trim that attracts dirt. Works on most exterior trim types Door handles, bumpers, textured plastics & rubber, etc. Durable chemistry The coating “swaps part of its molecular structure” with the plastic – that gives C4 its lasting performance. How to Use / Application Guide To get the best results out of C4, follow these steps: Prep properlyClean the trim thoroughly—remove old dressings, grime or oils. If needed, use a citrus-based all-purpose cleaner and scrub with a medium stiff brush. The surface must be dry and contaminant-free. Ideal conditionsApply when temperature is above ~5 °C, on a cool surface, and out of direct sunlight. Ventilate if indoors. Wear gloves. ApplicationUse a lint-free applicator pad; dampen it with a few drops of C4 and spread evenly over the trim. For very textured trim, take your time to get into the crevices. Remove excessImmediately after applying a section, buff off any residue using a quality microfibre cloth. If residue is left in deep textures, it may turn powdery. Cure timeAllow around 12 hours for the coating to cure before exposing to water or harsh conditions. Storage & usage tips Use within three months after opening. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Choose the right size: a small car or trim set needs less product; large areas (bumpers, side skirts) need more.

It’s built for durability: you should get up to two years’ protection with a single application. Because it forms a chemical / molecular bond, it outperforms typical “spray on, dressings” in both finish and longevity. Specifications & Packaging Available sizes: 15 ml and 30 ml bottles.
