Faded platic fixes?

[TSRAM]

I am looking for something to renew the plastic on the bumpers, doors, mirrors etc. I've heard of a product called "Bumper Black", but nowhere seems to carry it. Have you tried anything that lasts any amount of time?

Mother Back to black but it's sorta like wiping armorall on doesn't last real long but dang if it don't look good

i used the mothers product "back to black" on my door handles, and it worked great.....

Buy a few bottles Of Back to black as you can't allways find it. I swear they put crack in it as I cannot live without it. 2 coats buffed out and plastic looks better than th efactory intended. It is a nice satan finish and not Bling Bling Wet"N"Shiney looking.

I found Back to Black at Autogeek.net about $5 / 8oz.

i used the spray paint stuff made for bumpers from the local VIP auto on my old truck. cleaned them up good, then sprayed them. only lasted for a year, before starting to rub off, but looked real good for a $3 can of paint.

I use a 3M product called 303 Protectant. Works great and lasts much longer than the tire goop.

Leatherall works really well for me. Have to do some searching around, but it leaves plastic not necessarily shiny, but makes it look lush and deep again.

Another option is Nyalic, which I hear works well, but haven't tried it myself. It's basically a permanent solution. Vaughn

I found "Back to Black" at Walmart. Haven't used it yet to see how it works.

I use a product called black again. It is a clear thick gel that stays on longer than Back to Black. However, they are both good products.

Was getting ready to order black again, then found this stuff:



Forever Black



It is a dye and is supposed to last 2 years. You can put the other stuff (mothers back to black and black again) over it if you want.



I've used Mothers and its good for one car washing. I'm going to try this stuff and see how it works on my fender flares.

I tried forever black , It looked good for about 2 months then it started peeling. It reminded me of black shoe polish. I used the cleaner that came with it but must not have done a good job of prep.
