    The heat gun method unfortunately doesn't last long.....better to use a quality trim restorer to add back some moisture. Same with headlights. A sand and polish with clearcoat means whoever buys the car won't have it go back to crap in less than a month.

    • @damagecontrol1049
      @damagecontrol1049 Před 2 měsíci +7

      Gotta agree heat gun brings back the oils in the trim but within a week it'll look faded again.
      Trim restorer or even a cheap ceramic coating will bring back that trim and will stay the life of the coating

    I did something similar, had a 2007 Honda CRV, I was the second owner, first owner never cared enough to change all the factory parts so I went ahead and did it myself and the car ran amazing with no issues. Sold it for $3k. Bought myself a 2011 535i xDrive with that $3k and currently building it to make around 700hp.

    I know you’re trying to do things cheaply but you should also do them right or you’re basically scamming people. That trim will look worse than before in a few months time if even that long and that clear didn’t have any uv protectant in it so same story with the headlights. Use 3m plastic dye for trim and Griots ceramic headlight restoration and you’ll get the same or better results and they’ll last.
