All our Plastic Restorer products

Exterior plastics (bumpers, mirrors, wheel arches) turn gray and dull because of UV and oxidation. A plastic restorer restores the original black color by penetrating the material. Apply the product to an applicator pad and spread it evenly. Let it dry for 10 to 30 minutes, then wipe off the excess. For very degraded plastics, a heat treatment with a heat gun (with caution) can revive the color before applying the restorer. AGM Vision offers long-lasting restorers that protect plastics for 3 to 6 months.

The plastic restorer contains agents that penetrate deep into the material in order to restore the color and soften it. Its effect lasts several weeks to several months.The dressing (or trim dressing) is a finishing product that deposits a shiny film on the surface. Its effect is immediate and aesthetic, but fades faster (a few washes).The ideal is to combine both: first the restorer to treat the plastic in depth, then the dressing for a glossy finish. AGM Vision offers 2-in-1 products that combine restoration and protection.

No, the plastic restorer is designed for raw unpainted plastics (black or gray). On a painted bumper, it is useless and can even leave greasy marks. Painted bumpers are treated like the bodywork: shampoo, polish and wax. To know whether your bumper is painted or raw, run your finger over it: a raw plastic has a grainy and matte texture, a painted plastic is smooth and shiny. If the painted bumper is scratched, a corrective polish followed by a wax will restore its appearance. AGM Vision clearly identifies the products intended for raw plastics.

The duration depends on the type of product and the exposure conditions. Silicone-based restorers offer a nice immediate result, but only last 2 to 4 weeks. Resin- or polymer-based restorers penetrate more deeply and last 2 to 6 months. Plastic coatings (ceramic type) offer the best longevity: 6 to 12 months. Outdoor parking, direct sun, and frequent washes reduce the duration. For an optimal result, AGM Vision recommends a renewal every 3 months with a quality restorer.

Yes, preparation is essential for good adhesion and a long-lasting result. First, wash the plastics with a shampoo or an all-purpose degreaser (APC) to remove dirt and silicone residues. Rinse, then dry completely. If the plastics are very dull, an IPA cleaning (isopropyl alcohol) after washing ensures a perfectly clean surface. Then apply the restorer to a dry and clean plastic. This preparation makes the difference between a treatment that lasts 1 month and one that lasts 6 months.
