Product Name: PB Bold&Bright/Trim restorer/QS
Product Container: All three contianers are in a plain thin bottle that work just fine.
Product Labeling: Typical PB and Clearkote labeling
Product Characteristics: Trim restorer is a clear liquid, BnB is a milking white color, QS has a darker milky looking color. TR smells like coconuts, BnB and QS have a slight chemical smell (not strong at all) All three are a thin liquid consistency. TR you can tell is silicon based but according to Steve (the owener of PB) it contains the good silicones that won't dry out or damage the trim.
Product Performance: All three did much more then what the manufacteres claim. They surpassed my expectaion.
Product Price: Definatly worth buying, especially TR since such a little amount goes soooooo far. 1 bottle will last you for quite a long time.
Product Safety: As long as you don't drink them you're fine.
First up PB BnB I started by cleaning the wheel with my Megs wheel brush and Quick and Easy (QEW) car wash soap. Then I dried the tires thoroughly with my Autogeek Mango mf towels. Using a foam paint brush (makes spreading it easy and even) I applied a thin line across the tip of the brush and "painted" it on (makes for less waste as well).

Next up one of the best products I used is PB Trim restorer. I made sure during the wash that I really cleaned the trim so to have a good surface to work on. I used a mf towel but would recommend the foam paint brush technique, the mf towel absorbed it more then spread it around (I used a foam paint brush before and it worked spreading it better) so I used more then last time :-[. Using the mf towel and using as little as possible product I started with nice and even stroks over lapping each other slightly. If your trim is in really bad shape (like mine) it will streak at first you just need to let it sit of about 10 min then go over the area again. I did 2 coats to ensure full coverage and my trim was really faded and needed it.

After (2 coats and buffed 10 min after last coat to ensure removal of any excess)

I also used for the first time since bought Clearkotes Quick Shine quick detailer (bought from Bob) and I must say I was very impressed at the gloss and wetness (also WOW) factor after use. I sprayed a mist of QS to each panel and buffed using my PB mega plush mf towel (and showing off my new rims :D ).
