Faded cowl panels, chalky mirror caps, dried door seals—black plastics and rubber age fast. COMEBLACK Plastic & Rubber Trim Coating is D-Tail Lab’s answer: a water-based, SiO₂-enhanced coating that restores color, adds UV protection, and lays down a hydrophobic shield on plastic, vinyl, and rubber—inside and out.
What is COMEBLACK?
COMEBLACK blends PDMS (silicone), polymer resins, and SiO₂ in a water-based formula to:
- Deepen color on dried or faded plastics and rubber
- Add UV protection to help slow future fading
- Repel water and grime with a hydrophobic effect
- Outlast typical dressings without the sticky residue
Sizes: 500 ml, 4 L, 20 L.
Directions (quick)
- Prep: Deep clean plastics/rubber (APC + brush), rinse, and fully dry.
- Apply: Use an applicator or microfiber; work evenly until absorbed.
- Level: Wipe any excess, especially on textured plastics.
- Dry: Keep dry/dust-free as it sets. Heavily weathered pieces may need a second pass.
- Interior use: Dilute up to 1:3 (product:water) for dashboards, vinyl, and interior plastics.
- Exterior use: Use it pure on the plastic trims and tires to restore them
Where COMEBLACK shines
- Exterior plastics: bumper inserts, mirror housings, wiper cowls, roof rails, textured plastics
- Rubber & tires: sidewalls and exterior rubber trim
- Interiors (diluted 1:3): dashboards, vinyl & plastic trims, door panels, door jambs
Pros & Cons :
Advantages
- Versatile: exterior full-strength; interior use when diluted
- Non-greasy finish that resists dust
- Hydrophobic + UV protection for easier maintenance
- Available in pro-friendly sizes
Limitations
- Not a permanent ceramic trim coating—periodic re-application is normal
- Contains silicone (PDMS)—degrease thoroughly before repainting or applying a pro ceramic trim coating later
D-Tail Lab alternatives & pairings (beyond COMEBLACK)
If you want longer durability or a different finish, here’s how our lineup compares and complements COMEBLACK.
1) Maximum longevity on plastics & rubber: CERAMI-X META
A reactive nano-ceramic trim coating that chemically bonds to plastics/rubber for coating-level protection and color depth. Designed for strong UV and contamination resistance and longer service life (with proper prep and maintenance).
- Best for: Severely faded exterior trim, cowls, mirror caps, roof rails needing a durable, coating-grade solution
- Trade-off: More prep and cure time than COMEBLACK; follow coating steps
2) Versatile restore/protect with interior option: COMEBLACK (baseline)
Water-based PDMS/polymer + SiO₂ trim coating that deepens color, adds UV protection, and sheds water. Use full-strength outside; dilute up to 1:3 for interiors. Easier and more forgiving than ceramic trim coatings.
3) Dressings for tone/shine control
- PHOENIX Multi-Purpose Dressing – Versatile in/out on plastics, vinyl, leatherette with UV protection; choose when you want a rich dressed look without going ceramic.
- DRESS 2 IMPRESS (Water-based) – Gloss-forward, conditioning finish for interior plastic/rubber/vinyl—ideal for showroom interiors.
- Mr. RUBBERT McTIRE (Solvent-based) – High-gloss tire dressing designed to dry fast and help reduce sling. Reserve for tires.
4) Quick maintenance toppers
- QUICX Ceramic Detailing Spray – Rapid SiO₂ boost for hydrophobics, gloss, and UV on paint, gloss plastics, wheels, and more. Great for refreshing look and beading after cure.
- PRODIGY Hybrid SiO₂ Wet-Coat – Spray-on, rinse-off protection for paint (and surrounding areas) in the same wash cycle; ideal time-saver when you’ve just restored trims.

Pro prep & sequencing (for best results)
- Deep clean first: Use an APC (e.g., PLASMA) and a soft brush to remove old dressings and embedded grime. Rinse and fully dry.

Pick your protection path:
- Need coating-grade durability? Choose CERAMI-X META.
- Want versatility & ease inside & out? Choose COMEBLACK (dilute 1:3 for interiors).
- Finish & maintain: Tires with Mr. RUBBERT McTIRE; quick gloss/hydrophobics with QUICX after cure; interior sheen with DRESS 2 IMPRESS or PHOENIX.
Safety notes: Avoid pedals, steering wheels, and fabrics (slip/staining risk). Test in a hidden spot first.
The bottom line
If your goal is rich, revived trim with better durability than typical dressings, easy application, and flexibility for interiors, COMEBLACK hits the sweet spot. Use it full-strength outside, dilute it for interiors, and enjoy darker, cleaner-looking plastics and rubber with hydrophobic protection and UV resistance—without the fuss of a full ceramic trim coating.
