Tuck91's "Lab Sample P" Product Review

Re: Tuck91's "Lab Sample P" Product Review

How would you compare Lab Sample P to other products you've dressed your interior with? Specifically with regards to looks and ease of application.

Lab Sample P goes on pretty easily IMO. Tonight was the first time I dressed my interior with it and I what I really love about Lab Sample P is how great it makes the interior smell, this is something Tim took note of in his review. It has a very fresh and clean scent to it.

I also still have a good amount of the lab sample left and I have already applied it to all my exterior trim, interior, floormats, and three other trucks.

I like the look of it, the look depends on where and what you are applying it to though. for example, the interior has slightly more gloss than my exterior trim, the other trucks I applied it to left more of a black/matte finish.

Here it is applied to the exterior trim: ( mirrors, bed rails, cowl, mudflaps etc)




I took some more pictures of the interior also, hopefully you can see the way the dressing looks:



One more:



Like I said, now that I have applied it to everything I am going to keep an extremly close eye on it.

UPDATE:

I washed my truck today with NXT Generation Car Wash and so far the dressing seems to be holding up very well. When I sprayed it with the hose it beaded up, but most other dressings do that as well.

Here is a picture of the mirror, I applied Lab Sample P two days ago, and its been through rain and one wash so far:






After I washed my truck today, I applied Lab Sample P to the rest of the exterior trim and then I applied Lab Sample P to the interior.








I then applied Lab Sample P to the interior:










After applying it to the interior it left a fresh clean smell which was not too strong but not too mild either. The dressing also seemed to be a little higher glossed on the interior vinyl than the exterior trim. I will be keeping a close eye on the exterior and interior. I am curious to see if it attracts a lot of dust.

I will be sure to keep you guys updated.

Nick,

Great review! You were the right person to choose to do this review.

It looks like LS-P may be the dressing that will replace M40 for me. As I mentioned in Tim's review of LS-P, I love M40, but haven't completely warmed up to the way it smells.

Keep us posted on durability.

Thanks for the review,
Mike

Re: Tuck91's "Lab Sample P" Product Review

You say this product has a "like new" look and feel to it. Any comments as to how it compares to Natural Shine? Maybe you could compare Lab Sample P to Natural Shine when you do an interior test?

I would consider this an interior test,





I only have a sample of this product so I was not going to apply it to the whole floor. This truck gets used a couple times a week and when I return on Monday I will see how it and the other test subjects have been holding up. I did not really think to test it up against Natural Shine since I do not feel they are the same and I actually just wanted to try it out independantly first. Perhaps later I will put it up against other dressings like Tim did in his review.

Thanks for taking the time to do the write up

Please keep us in the loop on longevity

Thanks Mike, I definitly will be recording the durabilty on several more surfaces.

You guys get all the fun!

Keep us posted on longevity!

LOL, its a bit of work too. will definitly keep this updated.

Very Cool Tuck.

So what you think makes it so different is that it re-darkens the trim again, but it isn't shiny or greasy right?

Yes, based on some of my test surfaces this is what I have come to think. It turned this truck's trim from grey to black. And once I wash this truck again I will take more pictures. I would also like to note I am testing this product out on tires.

Re: Tuck91's "Lab Sample P" Product Review

Thanks Nappers, hopefully this will be a winner for you. So far the dressing has been holding up quite well on my truck's mirror and it has been raining.

I will get some additional pictures up soon.

You guys get all the fun!

Great review Nick!

Can't wait to see what it is and how our Neon stands up to it! The trim around the windows are horrid and laughs at anything I throw at it....ASD/GCTD/M40 don't hold up to it at all!

Keep us posted on longevity.

Good show

Re: Tuck91's "Lab Sample P" Product Review

Very nice review, Nick. I'm loving this product so far and haven't even touched it. The way you described it makes it sound like just the product for me. I love the new car, matte, non-greasy finish but that's so hard to come by. Can't wait to see what this test sample turns out to be.

I know when I tested what is now NXT 2.0, I couldn't wait to find out what it was actually going to be. Same thing goes for this and I'm not even testing it.

Re: Tuck91's "Lab Sample P" Product Review

Tuck, they chose you because we all know you love to dress rubber and plastics



I've been avoiding using dressing or trim detailer of any kind because of the artificial gloss and greasy feeling that they produce, not to mention how quickly they all wear off. Maybe Meguiar's has heard my complaint. Maybe this is the product for people who want a dressing that is more subtle and more durable. But maybe not. Nevertheless, I cannot wait to read more reviews of other variations of this trim detailer.

Re: Tuck91's "Lab Sample P" Product Review

Yeah, white and creamy seems like Consumer.

A less greasy ASD would be nice, but those are very liquid.

Yeah, It will be interesting to see where the product fits in and where it stands in the lineup.
