Dirty trim can seem like a big problem, but it’s an easy fix! You can clean the rubber around your windows with some mild soap and trim protectant. Follow these steps to clean the rubber on your windows:
  • Start by applying a mild automotive soap cleaner to the trim on all windows.
  • Use a toothbrush to scrub the soap into the rubber, making sure to use extra elbow grease on tougher stains.
  • Rinse the soap with warm water and dry with a soft, microfiber cloth.
  • Apply a black trim restorer or automotive seal protectant so the rubber doesn’t degrade over time.
Just like that, the rubber seal around your car windows will be clean and protected!
