Trim pieces
Not sure of the name of them, however I just re-did my trim and used the dark red (burgundy) scotch pads. They seemed to work better the more that they were used.
Make sure that you sand down the trim where there are any chips or divots. While sanding down where there is a chip, sand hard enough to see the color change,the chip disappear, and then blend the sanding in. Usually a small chip will require sanding until there is a color change of the size of a quarter. Rough numbers. You will understand this better after you do the first one.
When I go to work I will get the name of the pads I used and post it.
Also, if you break any or all of those plastic clips, metal replacements can be used. I just snapped mine in the other day.
Good luck,
Busyman
