Best product for 'back to black' look?

[4937Liam]

Right the missis has just got a new car, however as the title suggests the bump strips are slightly faded. Anyone know of a good quality spray or product to wipe onto the plastic? - so it actually stays black and doesn't quickly fade back to that dull grey / black
Any help much appriciated. Thanks - Liam.

Peanut butter works a treat!

I didn't get on with the Meguirs one, too much effort to apply without making a mess and didn't leave a great result.

I just like the aerosol ones, Simoniz, Carplan etc, whatevers on offer really. May try AG though

[MoonstoneGTi]

I use Megs Gold Class Trim Detailer:) Good for the bumper trim & all exterior plastics & also great for the interior as well. You can go for 2 finishes as well with either the cheap tastic shiny plastic look or the more subtle matt finish.

Meguiars Trim Detailer....... :)

used to use AG bumper care. now use Clearkote rubber & vinyl dressing. PLEASE get some, it really is the best stuff for the job. doesn't leave any marks on ur paint or smears and gives the best results.

it gets rid of wax marks as well, rather than just covering them up. plus it works on tyres too :)

just to help...

no excuses now! get it. trust me. :)

[rickyp-rpm]

i had a bottle of stuff i "borrowed" off the valeters @ one of the garages i worked at and it was refered to as bumper spunk (due to its looks and use) was top stuff but dont know the brand etc sorry

[yt_106_quiksilver]

I found that auto glym bumper care was the best, nothing else would keep my old corsa bumpers black this is what they looked like before...(only pic i could find with gray bumpers)
