I don't put wax on my vehicles anymore. I get the basic wash at the carwash with a ceramic spray. Works better than wax and the plastic trim looks like it's been treated. Shiny so far at with 5,000 miles.

Does the new bumper stay blacker/cleaner than the rest of the trim?I use turtle wax ice on my VW and yes, it's great since you can use it on glass, plastic trim etc. I had my wifes Bronco Sport ceramic coated and mentioned to the detailer how I though the trim was dull. We are having the rear bumper replaced this Weds. the 2nd due to transport damage and once we get it back the guy who detailed and coated our truck said he has a ceramic coating treatment that darkens the trim and will last a few years. I'll give you a heads up how it comes out and who makes it once we get it done
Have you had any luck with keeping it clean?I was just noticing the same thing on mine (3500 miles). :/
Yeah, that's cool to watch. People on Reddit keep posting videos of them doing that to stadium seats with a flamethrower.Some are using heat gun. Just have to be really careful to move a lot instead of melting trim
Heat gun
I'm going to say a flame thrower is a bit above my interest? the heat gun gets plenty hot enough. I'll post before and after pics.Yeah, that's cool to watch. People on Reddit keep posting videos of them doing that to stadium seats with a flamethrower.

I would like to see the before and after pictures. I personally think the issue is something that Ford needs to fix. I’m currently working with my dealership on next steps to replace all the trim.I'm going to say a flame thrower is a bit above my interest? the heat gun gets plenty hot enough.

I'll say good luck. My wife's jeep has similar plastic interior sections. It scratches. I'd be surprised if Ford takes on that kind of responsibility. Let us know how it works out. I'll post pics of the bumper. I'm still in Houghton lake.I can
