Endurance HG on trim?

[buckshot333]

On the bottle for Endurance HG it says not to use on vinyl surfaces....what will happen if I do use it on vinyl? Will it stain? I was just wondering because I was hoping to be able to use it on exterior trim on cars.

I've used it once or twice on my car's window rubber trims and roof linings. Even on the windscreen trims. No problems at all. But I didn't try them on 'vinyl surfaces' before tho...?

I was thinking like the plastic trim, I don't think most trim on the exterior of cars is vinyl, my bad.

On this thread it sounds like Endurance is not bad for your trim, it stains your trim if it slings off the tires though (because it carries stuff from your tires onto your trim). Anyone else have any thoughts on whether Endurance HG can be used as a protectant for plastic trim on the exterior of cars? Thanks.

Any takers?? Perhaps an official word from Meguiar's on if this product is safe as an exterior protectant??

There are all kinds of plastic and vinyl, so we need to be more specific when talking about what you want to apply a product onto.

If you're talking about using Endurance on plastic trim like the black or gray pebbled textured trim on many new cars then we'll check to see if there could be any problems with this.

We actually make a product for this however called Trim Detailer. Meguiar's recommendation is to match the product to the material being treated and Trim Detailer is the correct match to exterior plastic trim.
