Can You Use Ceramic Spray on Plastic Trim and Rubber?
Yes—you can safely use Tough As Shell on most exterior plastic trim and rubber seals.
It won’t discolor, haze, or dry out plastic like some harsh protectants—and it adds water beading, UV protection, and a subtle satin finish.
Why Apply Ceramic Spray to Trim?
- ✅ Prevents fading, drying, and discoloration from UV rays
- ✅ Repels water and keeps trim cleaner longer
- ✅ Adds a smooth, uniform finish that doesn’t attract dust
How to Apply on Trim and Rubber
- Clean the surface with The Super Soaper or a mild APC
- Dry completely with a towel
- Spray Tough As Shell onto a microfiber applicator or towel—never directly onto the surface
- Wipe across the trim or rubber in even lines
- Buff lightly with a second towel to remove excess and prevent haze
Pro Tip: Combine With a Trim Dressing
Want deeper restoration or adjustable shine? Apply ceramic spray *after* using All Dressed Up on faded trim for the ultimate combo of appearance and protection.
