This video is certainly underappreciated. I've been looking left and right for exactly this, and all I can find around the web is how to restore glossy B panels. Thank you!

You're welcome! - Nick

After watching this video I used some $10 ceramabryte for glass cooktops I had under the sink and just rubbed my B pillars by hand (took over an hour). They came out almost as nice the video. This video saved me from trying the plastic restorers that all get bad reviews for this application.

Fantastic. I’ve tried multiple good products on my FJ’s B-pillar with mostly poor results. You just got a new customer!

[@mhlittleton6493]

Very nice, Nick! 👍

Awesome video! Good to know for these Arizona cars where the sun beats up those plastic parts

[@DetailingBreakdown]

Wow, huge difference! Im gonna try that!

[@deothedetailer920]

Hey I see your using a polish , would any polish workout for this ? To only bring the color back not the protection of course

[@SmokeeeTreees]

Excellent video, question….do i also polish the metal trim and glass? Or should i do something else?

[@biggun7]

Nice video, would this remove a ceramic coating that was left on the b pillar?

[@butchmcclinton1931]

Nice work…good info….I think you change cars like I change socks…loo

[@jalenpambid7333]

Is there an amount of times you can polish matte b pillars? Like is it similar to clearcoat to where it’ll eventually run out of the top layer?

[@lokomoko008]

Will it work in fading caused by sun damage?

[@impactplayr3d]

Would this fix light surface scratches, feels smooth still, just surface level scratches.

[@wuzupyalljay1830]

Does it takes off white streaks of the b pillar

[@darneilsipalay4270]

did it remove some of the scratches

[@nyrz]

I would emphasize to have light pressure

[@SivarLeBeast]
