I did my mirror plastic again. This time I took the mirrors off the car and used bugger all pressure on steps 2 and 3. This time it worked.

It was me using too much elbow grease last time. Now the sponge where steps 2 and 3 are used for on the blue side are starting to go back to blue. They turned black before.

Man what a difference.

I got a question though, is any of these steps going to hurt the paint on the car? I do get a bit of over rub when not using any pressure.


glad to hear you got some pleasing results now timmeh, aurora 98 will be very happy. nah it wont hurt your paintwork, just wipe it of with a soft cloth.

It's great for paintwork, won't be a problem
You can use it to fill in swirls and then lock in the fillers and seal the paint

Quick notice on Trim Dream
Step 3 now has a new ingredient in it that will boost the protective qualities and give more smoothness and colour. Which means slightly more black mirror finish

Applied by hand to my car

Yeah for sure, just wait until I get to do a BA or BF falcon, the finish might be even darker

no mate yours is not outdated, the difference is minimal and I've decided to only sell step 3 V4.21 in the trim dream pro kit unless someone definately wants it

Step 3 V4.20 in the trim dream hand applied version is still awesome

Notice that the top exterior trim looks better
Trim dream cleaned these in the past but never made them that good

I'll do another car and get better pics for you

UPDATE ON TRIM DREAM

Another ingredient has been added to the formulation
Step 2 and step 2 pro now have a special colour and clarity enhancing liquid

Thus BA to BF Falcon and Territory owners in particular can now use Trim Dream or Trim Dream pro (1 for hand and machine, 1 for machine only) and get even crazier gloss, more black and more clearcoat look

I stumbled across it today. Was doing a brainstorming session

This is the best thing about buying your products from me. Even the products I have released will get improved upon

Here's a couple shots of trim dream step 1 on a E series Fairlane rear window trim piece

This was done quickly by hand so Imagine step 1, 2 and 3 by machine and step 3 by hand afterwards. Would be like the paint
