Is Gloss Boss Safe on Trim and Plastics?
Many ceramic coatings are not trim-safe—but Gloss Boss is. Let’s break down how to use it on plastic and rubber parts without streaking or staining.
Trim-Safe Chemistry
Unlike some traditional coatings that leave white stains or streaks on plastics, Gloss Boss is engineered to bond cleanly to porous and textured surfaces. That includes:
- Unpainted plastic bumpers
- Window trim and moldings
- Rubber gaskets and seals
- Matte black side mirrors
How to Apply Gloss Boss to Trim
- Clean the surface with an APC or Complete Cabin Cleaner if interior.
- Wipe with isopropyl alcohol if the surface is extremely dirty or previously dressed.
- Apply Gloss Boss using a foam applicator and gently work it into the trim.
- Wait 1–2 minutes for it to flash, then level off with a microfiber towel.
Pro Tip: Avoid Overuse
Don’t oversaturate the applicator—just a few drops will go a long way on plastic or rubber surfaces. Reapply every 12–18 months or as needed based on UV exposure and wash frequency.
Long-Term Benefits
- Improves water beading and UV resistance
- Helps darken and restore faded black trim
- Reduces dust attraction and staining

FAQs
Will Gloss Boss stain plastic or rubber?
No. Gloss Boss is specifically designed to bond to rubber, plastic, and trim without staining, discoloration, or streaking.
Should I use a different applicator on trim?
Yes. A small foam or microfiber applicator like the All Blacked Out Applicators makes it easier to work into textured surfaces and reduce waste.
