FAQs

Can I use Simoniz Back to Black on interior plastics?

This product is specifically formulated for exterior use on rubber and plastic trim. For interior plastics, it is recommended to use products designed for interior surfaces to avoid unwanted residue or damage.

How long does the 'wet look' finish last?

The durability is described as 'industry-leading'. Actual longevity can vary based on weather conditions, exposure to road salt, and cleaning frequency, but it is designed to be long-lasting compared to many other dressings.

What is the best way to clean the tyres before applying?

Use a dedicated tyre cleaner and a stiff brush to remove all dirt, grease, and old dressing. Rinse thoroughly and allow the tyres to dry completely before applying Simoniz Back to Black.

Can I spray this on my car's paintwork?

No, this product is not intended for use on painted surfaces. Overspray on paint should be washed off immediately with warm, soapy water to prevent staining or damage.

Is it safe to use on matte black plastic trim?

The product provides a high-gloss finish. While it will restore color, it will likely alter the finish from matte to glossy. Test on an inconspicuous area first if preserving a matte finish is critical.

Do I need to wear gloves when using this product?

It is always recommended to wear gloves when using automotive detailing products to protect your skin. Ensure good ventilation during application.

How many applications can I expect from a 500ml can?

The number of applications depends on the size of the areas being treated and the number of coats applied. For regular maintenance on a standard car, a 500ml can should provide multiple applications for all exterior trim and tyres.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish or streaking

Ensure the surface is clean and dry before application. Maintain a consistent spray distance (10-15 cm) and use smooth, sweeping motions. Apply multiple light coats rather than one heavy coat for a more uniform finish.

Product not spraying properly

Shake the can vigorously before and during use. Ensure the nozzle is not clogged. If clogged, try gently cleaning the nozzle with a damp cloth or a fine pin, following safety precautions.

White residue after drying

This may occur if too much product was applied or if applied in very cold temperatures. Wipe away excess with a clean, soft cloth. For future applications, use lighter coats.

Product washes off easily

Ensure surfaces were thoroughly clean and dry before application. The product relies on bonding to the surface; contaminants can hinder this. Reapply ensuring proper surface preparation.
