What is a good way to clean and bring the glossy black color back into these? I don't want to use anything that will cause the wife or kids to slip getting in. Is there a process that I can do to avoid that yet get the results I want?

I use 303 aerospace on my Z71 plastics, works really well and adds UV protection. Ive heard good things about mothers back to black as well

Only bad thing bout shine on the bumper plastic is when it rains, it WILL streak down the bumper. But, it does look good shined up

I may screw around with some fine sand paper and see what happens. Something along the lines of wet sanding and buffing

Use some good old Peanut Butter.. Seriously. I was skeptical at first as well like WTF!! but yea peanut butter works real well I use it for the plastic side steps, bumper trim, and fender flares. It works great with the white oxidized look left over from wax and what not on the trim. check it out on youtube.

I use it too and I do have kids. Does the job and I had no problems with it.

+1 on the 303...great stuff for black composite parts. Satin sheen with UV protection but without artificial looking gloss.
