Chemical Guys VRP Vinyl Rubber and Plastic Protectant Reviews

So let me start by saying this is not my go to dressing but I do love it for a base layer on neglected faded plastic parts. I also use this on my clients with a budget

Worked as advertised. Used on interior parts and trim pieces. It gave renewed life to a 20 year old car. Didn't work quite as well on tires. Perhaps needed more coats.

The one positive comment I have on this product is that it's inexpensive.

The smell is good. The shine is excellent. It does not spray well from a sprayer bottle however due to the viscosity. Must be leveled on the tire for best look and coverage.

Great product for inside or out! Non greasy and gives the tires and dash a nice slick look without being too glossy! Doesn't last super long but very easy to apply!

VRP is one of the product I find my self reach for most of the time.
This dressing is water base but does not require dilution.I have found application on tire ,trim and interior vinyl and plastic to be quite smooth and quick . Great product, affordable and last till your next maintenance wash .

This product is great! Goes on easy using microfiber pad. Also good for the black trim around car. Haven't tried it in the interior yet, but once I do I will update this review to include that.

This stuff is awesome. Buy a gallon you'll love it

the only CG product I really cannot say anything bad about, but there are better dressings out there. I enjoy the smell and how it can be diluted depending on what level of gloss you are looking for. being water based it is easy to apply and does not sling when properly applied to tires. works well other places too including engine bay.

I have used this product for a number of years. I only use it on my tires and the black plastic fenders on my Jeep Wrangler. I do not dilute it, I use it straight. I use a foam applicator to apply it. Works great!

This is a amazing product that came from.the chemical guys line. Great for tire dressing. It do not fling all over the car like other brands.

Awesome, great job.
Recommend this dressing

Excellent Product as a short-term tire and plastic exterior trim shine. I use it full strength on the exterior. Of course, like all dressings of this type, it only lasts a very short time. Maybe a week or two or possibly a rainstorm.

I am full-time professional detailer. I'll make this short and sweet...I like this VRP dressing from Chemical Guys and works great in many applications. My problem is that Chemical Guys products are carried in every retail store from Walmart-Auto stores. As a Owner and Professional Detailer I should have a different level of Professional products that complete the same Job but are not on a major retail level. Am I really a Professional Detailer if everyone can get the same products I use? Having Professional products ONLY available for Professional Detailers is what I am looking for NOT the products some DIY can order from Walmart or DI.

VRP is far and away the best tire dressing I have ever used. It is also perfect to use in the engine bay for your hoses or other plastic surfaces. It's very durable and provides a great shine for longer than any spray on product. What's awesome too is that you can adjust how much shine you get from the product by adjusting how much you apply and how much you rub it in.

This product works very well, my only complaint is the product that doesn't get absorbed gets thrown all down the bottom of vehicle. I will be spending more time wiping tires off next time I use it.

Bought it for home use. Arrived quickly and I have used it once. 2 weeks after applying it the tires still look great despite it raining almost everyday. I am very happy with this purchase and would buy again.

I'm actually a big fan of this. It works a million times better than armor all and better than any interior dressing I've used and product has lasted for me upwards to 2 weeks.

Does a nice job on tires which is my prime purpose for this product.

Got some from a buddy today! It brings black back! I can't wait to see how long it lasts. Applied with a microfiber applicator.

This will be purchased in a larger size next time I purchase. This is my new favorite tire shine, leaves a great finish that isn't too glossy, but still, makes the tires pop.

VRP is a lot better than VRT from Adam%u2019s. VRP is easy to use and leaves tires and dashboards looking brand new. I absolutely love it. Just put it on a sponge applicator and you can do wonders.

I love VRP from chemical guys. As a matter of fact, it was the first chemical product that I purchased. Been hooked ever since. This is the perfect dressing for those who don't like driving away after dressing up the tires and having it all over the side of the car. Nice deep black.

Bought this from CG over Independence Day weekend while they were running a sale and because I wanted the gallon (even though I'd never tried it). Glad I got the gallon as this one's a keeper. It's now about 9 weeks later. I've dressed my tires twice with VRP. Drive through a rancid water pool daily at work, always use degreaser to clean my tires, wheels, and wells, and despite all this, water still beads off my tires during my weekly wash. Don't hesitate. If you're on the fence just buy it and try it. Someday I'll get around to tossing out my Meg's Hyper Dressing.

Great stuff. I put it on dash, trim, and tires.

The product itself is a thick, white, jelly, so it might not go as far as a spray of a similar volume, but maybe I'm using too much. With that being said, if you're accustomed to sprays you will need a new application methodology.

It doesn't produce a very 'shiny' effect compared to high-silicone-content products like your standard ArmorAll garbage. Similarly, there isn't a slick residue left behind and it doesn't leave surfaces too 'slippery' to the touch; that more muted finish is exactly what I was looking for. The product gives surfaces a very 'clean' and 'new' appearance, without being gaudy or over-the-top. There also isn't a heavy scent to the product, both during and after application. Interior vinyl and rubber surfaces looked covered/protected for several weeks without any sign of the product diminishing/wearing down.

After applying it to my dash and engine bay, I decided to try this on my tires. It produced an excellent, subtle shine, 'fresh rubber' appearance that lasted for about a week, even after a rainstorm. If it weren't raining I think that the product might last for at least two weeks, or maybe more.

Product is very easy to apply without streaking and leaves a nice finish. A little product goes a long way when applying.

This is by far my favorite tire dressing. I use one coat and it leaves it looking very fresh, I'm not big into high gloss so one coat works just fine fore me. I use the Lake Country Dressing Applicator and this spreads extremely even and easy. The best part is there is absolutely no sling, I've applied it and drove off immediately after with no sling! I haven't tried it on interior, but I notice when I use it on exterior vinyl (mirrors, trim etc) after a rain it leaves spots and runs on the piece, I assume because it is water based. An absolutely great value!

Good stuff! Best tire dressing I have ever used!

It seems that you can't go wrong with a product from Chemical Guys. I have been doing an initial sealing of the car's vinyl, rubber and plastic with 303 Aerospace Protectant and then using VRP for the fiinal dressing and maintenance. VRP gives just the right amount of shine for my taste (conservative but noticable).

Great Product, on tires, it lasts a long time and it works great on anything from the engine bay to running boards. Love it!!

Really loved this product and I think its my new go to tire shine. Works great on faded plastics as well as no oily feeling once dry.

Only used it last week once when I received it. Weather in NJ still too cold to detail but the tires came up like brand new....nice luster, super easy to apply with large applicator. Worked great on engine compartment as well. Supposed to be 55 tomorrow, going to detail truck again and try two coats of tire dressing this time. Great product. Water based as well so washes off easily when cleaning truck.

I use this on my tires and it's hands down the best product I've ever used. Just the right amount of shine.

Buy it. You won't be disappointed.

I buy this stuff all the time. I love it on black plastic trim and my tires. I usually apply it and let my car set for a few hours and it doesn't sling off.

I love it so much! I kept buying other products form Wal-Mart and Autozone and nothing would keep the shine... But the Extreme V.R.P. does the works!

This is a great all around dressing!!! I really like the fact that you can control amount of shine depending on how many coats you put on, also like the fact that it lasts a while. Bottle goes long way, this is a very good deal and another great product from Chemical Guys!

My favorite tire dressing. One coat is just a simple clean looking tire, add another if you like gloss, easy to apply with foam tire applicator and a little goes a long way.

Great on tires. Gives a great new tire look without the bling (one coat). Not good on exterior plastic trim. Used this on black exterior trim on my BMW and looked great after buffing off excess after it a minute or so but it rained a bit later that evening and left water bead marks all over. I ended up just removing it with a QD. Not sure if it needed more time to cure/dry (rained about 4 hours after I applied it).

This is my new go to tire dressing! I used to use Meg's Hyper Dressing but this stuff lasts much longer,I applied it on my truck 2 weeks ago and thru 3 washes and a rainstorm it looks great.Very veratile one application leaves a nice matte finish and 2 coats is super shiny without blotches and is super easy to apply even with a foam applicator.A little goes a long way on this stuff plus I like the Detailed Image logo on the label.

this has become a must have for my exterior trim protection and even tire shine, and it smells great (something that is a must for me)

This stuff works Awesome!! I purchased it to only do my tires, but noticed it did great on any black surface on the car. Hoses, Moldings, Inner plastic fender piece, tires. You name it this product makes it look great!

Used on interior dash, engine bay, and exterior black trim and it came out looking beautiful. This stuff restores and protects everything in your car.

My main use for this is tire dressing, and I love the shine it produces. Makes tires look brand new!

This product leaves an amazing level of protection on interior plastic. It makes the plastic well conditioned but not with the heavy sheen of other conditioners. It seems to work well on rough exterior plastic, but applied to exterior smooth plastic will not stand up to washing.

So far used it on my tires and I like it alot.

I used this stuff on some truck tires and it leaves a very nice even finish. This is my go to stuff for tires from know on.

EXTREME V.R.P. is the bomb, I use this product on a regular basis. It leaves no oily silicone feeling after being finished, once it is dry... it is DRY......

Very nice product!

Use this stuff regularly on all my cars for everything from tires to the interior and engine bay. Works very well leaving a 'fresh new' appearance with out being too shiny. It does not attract dust like some other products as well. Love the smell as well, like a pleasant vanilla creme. Use a couple layers on the tires, and they'll look better than new!

Absolutely amazing for rubber trim, engine bays, wheel wells, you name it. Most importantly it gives tires an amazing finish that does not sling.
