A little pop to the natural wood trim.

A while back, I had asked about how to darken and maybe put a little bit of sheen on the brown natural wood trim. I tried some Old English stuff and it slightly darkened, but no sheen. Well, assuming that the wood trim must have some kind of protective coating (most likely urethane,) and thus I could do very little damage to the wood, I gave it a coating of 303 Protectorant. Got to say it did the job just right - a slight, non-obtrusive, sheen that gave the wood a classy patina. Try it, you'll like it and no worries if you have a leased car as the dealer will never notice the subtle difference

You need a hardening Oil to get a good sheen

speaking of wood trim, surprisingly, wrapping also looks cool.

looks good, I would have spent numerous hours sanding, staining and refinishing. I don't think the results would look any nicer.
