Angelwax AnGel Trim Gel

Restore faded plastic and vinyl with interior cleaner

Angelwax AnGel Trim Gel

Price: £4.39 (500ml)
Contact: www.angelwax.com

Top maker Angelwax has brought out new AnGel Trim Gel to revive cabin plastics and vinyl, and we tested it on a sun-faded dash.

First thing we noticed was how soft and sticky the water-based, silicone-free formula is – so it’s easy to use too much. Follow the instructions and dab on a small amount, and you’ll prevent smears when wiping.

It’s best to use a microfibre cloth to spread the product, and it cleans well. Dust, scuffs and other light soiling were shifted easily. We then buffed to a shine.

One application made a big improvement to the grey dash vinyl. A second go restored its original colour. The silk finish won’t suit all, but the slight fruity smell isn’t too overbearing.

Our sample pot isn’t on sale in the shops; instead, AnGel Trim Gel is presented in a 500ml bottle with a ‘trap-cap’ system for easy dispensing on to a cloth. And at £4.39, it looks top value.

Verdict

Rating: ★★★★
What is it?
Gloopy formula to help make grey plastics look their best again.
Problems?
Easy to apply too much, silk finish won’t appeal to everyone.
Why buy?
Good value for 500ml pack, great for restoring faded trim.
