Top Tier product if you are willing to take the time to properly apply it.
If you are looking for a quick wipe and walk away product, this is not it. If you are looking for a long lasting protectant that is going to make your trim look better than new, have the patience and willingness to go the extra mile in application, this is an outstanding product. I would rate it a 5 if only basing it on the end result of a patient application. I downgraded it to a 4 based upon what really needs to happen with the application. First off, clean and prep the trim. After a normal car wash, I went over all of my trim with a foaming tire cleaner (Hyper Foam Wheel Cleaner & Tire Prep) and a tire scrub brush. This was rinsed and followed by wiping the trim down with a Panel Prep (IPA type) spray. Once the panel prep had evaporated, the trim was ready for the application of the product. WEAR GLOVES. This is not a clear liquid, it's more of a creamy dye that will stain whatever it touches, hands, clothing, etc... Using a foam applicator or foam paint brush (I used both, the brush for tight areas where I needed more control). Apply a layer of the product... and yes, one layer may look streaky but don't sweat it. Use a circular motion with your foam applicator whenever possible. Apply to a section of the trim then immediately level with a microfiber cloth. Continue the first pass over all trim on the car using this process. All told, it took three total passes of all trim using this process to get uniform solid coverage but man, it looks great when finished. Better than new. It's been on my Jeep for two months thus far and, with routine maintenance washes, it looks like I applied it yesterday.

Watery and messy. Leaves streaks.
What a surprise to find a very watery and messy liquid in this bottle. It was very difficult to apply because it kept dripping all over the place. They recommend wearing gloves, but don't supply any. I don't keep plastic gloves on hand. I had to use plastic bags on my hand. If some accidentally gets on the paint of the car, it will not wipe off. It smears. I did the applications as directed on the bottle and did two applications as recommended but it has a very streaky look. I accidentally got some on my arm and it left a rash. I would not recommend this watery product. The car looks better but not very good.

Perfect plastic restorer.
This restored my 40 year old faded black trim to a brand new rich black. I Definitely recommend this product!

Like using black paint.
If I were applying it to a straight surface with no non black plastic around, I'd give it 5 stars. Unfortunately, it's very messy and gets on the non painted, silver plastic that borders the black trim. It drips like paint, but somewhat easier to remove. It's easy to remove from painted surfaces, especially if waxed. Not easy to remove from non painted, non black plastic. Takes longer to apply than any other product I've used. Also wear gloves. I had to use Dawn dish soap and a scrub brush to get it off my hands.I threw the bottle away when finished as I'd rather apply regular trim products weekly rather than use this stuff again.Fortunately our 2 year old Escapes didn't really need restoration, but just a touch up and protection. If they had the white marbling effect, then I'd keep the stuff.
