I recently tried the Crystal Coating for my car's plastic parts, and honestly, it's been a rollercoaster. The promise of an easy-to-use, glossy finish had me excited—especially since my car’s trim was looking dull and weathered.

First application: I followed the instructions—sponge, gentle wipe, let it sit. The initial result? A slight sheen, but nothing close to the 'like new' transformation shown in ads. I gave it another go, thinking maybe I missed a spot. Still underwhelming.

Where it *did* work decently was on smaller interior trim pieces. My dashboard vents and door handles got a subtle refresh, but exterior bumpers? Forget it. No magic here.

The biggest letdown? Durability. After two weeks (and zero rain), the shine faded completely. For the price and hype, I expected months of protection, not days.

Verdict: Maybe worth a shot for minor touch-ups indoors, but don’t bet on it reviving your exterior plastics. Some users swear by it—maybe it’s a hit-or-miss formula—but for me? It’s going back to the shelf.
