It happens when using caustic cleaning chemicals on the car. (For example a lot of touch-less car washes use very caustic chemicals to get the car clean without touching it.

Are you having this issue on your Model S or X?This stuff seems to work great to bring back the shine to the black trim.

The reason I am asking, is that that I’ve seen the door trim discoloration on the Model Y (after a touch-free car wash), but the Model S seems to have a slightly different trim surface: looks glossier than the trim on the Model Y.

I’ll be doing PPF wrap + ceramic coating next week. I wonder if the trim can be wrapped too? Or whether ceramic coating applied to the trim would help?Planning to get the S to my detailer next week so I can send some results once they're done with it.

As OP, I only had the M3 as a SC loaner and wish I could see this product work. The M3 had rear wheel drive and what a blast it was to drive. But the discoloration was terrible.

I wonder why the service center doesn’t apply that product properly remedy the discoloration on the loaner vehicle it provided, since many Tesla owners might be looking for a second Tesla vehicle for their family.
I had my 2020 S chrome trim wrapped to satin black and it came out good.I’ll be doing PPF wrap + ceramic coating next week. I wonder if the trim can be wrapped too? Or whether ceramic coating applied to the trim would help?
