Asheville Mobile Detailing Service
Plastic Trim Restoration
What This Service Covers
Trim restoration in Asheville targets sun-faded and gray exterior plastic by deep-cleaning the material and applying a restoration process designed to recover darker, richer color closer to factory appearance. Unlike quick dressings that wash away after a short period, this service focuses on longer-lasting correction and improved resistance to weathering from our mountain sun.
When You Might Need It
You should consider trim restoration when bumper trim, mirror housings, cowl pieces, or rocker moldings look patchy, chalky, or permanently dull after normal washing. It is especially useful for vehicles that spend long hours outdoors, because UV exposure accelerates fading and can make otherwise clean vehicles still look older than they are.
Why It Is Worth Doing
Restored trim sharpens the overall look of the entire vehicle and creates better contrast against clean paint, wheels, and glass for a more complete detailed finish. It also helps reduce the cycle of repeatedly buying temporary products that fade quickly, making it a cleaner and more durable way to keep your exterior looking maintained.
