My personal choice here but I wouldn't let any ArmorAll product touch any part of my truck....again personal choice.

Give it a shot and let us know what you think...do not spray on the trim, spray on a rag and use the rag to apply.

I use dedicated products for each application, PB Trim Restorer, PB Natural Look Dressing and of course Hypedressing. Which is the very reason why so many like this product, it can be used on virtually anything with great results.

Lastly I would read the instructions very closely and make sure that it says it is safe for all surfaces etc...or more importantly it doesn't say, do not use on plastic or rubber trim for some reason.

I take it you are in the Houston area. If so, look up Scott, he is prob there on Sat working and packing up my recent order.

He only carries PB, Optimum and ClearKoat products. The Hyperdressing you will need to get either online or find a dealer near you. I suspect there are many Car Wash product supply houses in the area.

I will be in Houston on Tuesday and Wed (Galleria Area for meetings)....to your question....I have to say that no, CK nor PB don't make a product like Hyperdressing...seriously its my favorite product regardless of brand and its kind of a special unique product b.c it can be used in so many ways.

The only product that comes close to it, would be Poorboys Natural Look dressing but the cost of that product vs Hypdressing makes it unrealistic to use like you can use Hypdressing.

alright, thanks for the help, good luck with those meetings and all, and be sure to hide all of your valuables and such, the galleria area as all of southwest houston have gotten extremely ghetto, it kind of depends though, the galleria itself isnt ghetto but its surroundings arent so great, thats actually the reason my family and i moved up to the woodlands, just a heads up, i would hate to see anything happend to that nice truck of yours

Ahh... the joy of rental vehicles. I just logged around 1,000 in a 2008 Dodge Ram this week (Big Horn Edition w/leather & 22" wheels)... I hate to admit it but, I kind of liked it.

The paint color was really really really nice... I love a black paint with flake (TAKE A HINT FORD -- flat black is nice but, it's time to raise the bar!).

RR, what dilution rate do you use with hyperdressing? Do you use a single rate for all purposes or do you use one rate for wheel wells, a different rate for bed rails, etc...I'd be interested to know. Thanks.

I pretty much use the same for everything so I don't have to have multiple bottles with various mixes in it. I use a pump to put product in the bottle and to be honest, when it gets low, I pump some in the bottle then use filtered water for the rest...since I really don't pay much attention to how much the dilution is, I "think" I run pretty much around the 3:1 or 4:1 ratios and I know this based on how it looks in the bottle. Megs makes a bottle just for Hyperdressing with Ratio mix marks...I recommend you get one to make it easier.

Already have one of the hyperdressing bottles. I think I'm using around a 4:1 ratio.
