Black bumper trim faded. What do you use?

[jmzvet]

The black step pad on my rear bumper is fading and looks grayish.
Any recommendations to restore it to black?

Mothers makes a product called back to black. Give that a try

I haven't used it on my Yukon but on my other car's bumper trim it doesn't hold up for long at all. It looks good at first but it doesnt last for long. I'm looking for a better product now.

I use this only used it once and has been through around 5-6 washes now and still looks new and conditioned.

Gents... Two words: Lemon Pledge. Yes, the furniture polish.

Forget all of the other crap. If you've already used Armor-all, then you can forget anything getting the look back. It's toast.

Do yourself a favor, and never use anything on your plastic trim pieces except for Lemon Pledge.

Does the Pledge make it slippery?
Tire Shine sure does. Ask my wife how she knows!!

I suppose it makes it more slippery than nothing, but it's not "greasy."

You can use whatever you'd like, but I would NOT recommend tire wet on anything but tires. You're going to destroy your plastics.

Just look at any Jeep Wrangler on the road with milky, faded, blue-gray fender flares, and then ask the owner what he used on them.

Never thought about Pledge, interesting.

If your parts haven't already been ruined by Armor-all, then by all means give it a try. Use it on your front air damn piece, on the window trim, on the wiper arms, the steps, the textured mirror pieces... It'll look great, and it won't damage the plastic -- not now, and not after repeated usage.

stoner makes the best trim shine in an aerosol can.

So, who used Pledge on his truck this past weekend?
